Right, which also explains both why a HBO subscription costs so much and why they air so many reruns. However, not in all locales can one order HBO without also having a cable subscription.
- imgabe 14y agoI deleted after reading the article and realizing that it was talking about HBO in Europe, which apparently does run ads during the shows.
- Samuel_Michon 14y agoThanks for explaining. In The Netherlands HBO costs Euro 15 ($19) a month, it doesn’t run ads, and the fee includes HBO On-Demand and HBO GO. I don't know about other European countries, but if HBO runs ads there, surely the service will be cheaper too? </naïveté>
