Essentially, HBO will eventually fall and start offering content available for streaming. It's just a question of when. This is where the market is headed and even cable companies are getting into the streaming game.
In the meantime, I'd settle for an HBO Go app that wasn't junk.
- brockhand 14y agoI don't use the HBO Go application too often, but what problems did you encounter or what would you add?
- pwthornton 14y agoThe biggest problem is the lack of caching of shows for offline use. You have to have an active Internet connection for the app to even work, making it worthless for most traveling. Beyond that, to get good video, you need a very robust connection, ruling out hotel wifi, coffee shop wifi, plane wifi, train wifi, etc. Basically, the only place I can use HBO Go and get a good experience is my own house. Why it's called HBO Go is anyone's guess.
