Yes. While Warner Bros. Discovery has removed “HBO” from the service’s name, Max is the streaming home of HBO content, like HBO Max before it. How much does Max cost?
Unlike HBO Max, the rebranded service has three pricing tiers. The cost of the “ad-free” and “with-ads” plans remains as it was with HBO Max. However, there’s a third top-tier plan that offers 4K UHD streaming on more devices at a time and allows a higher number of offline downloads.
This is the biggest change for Max.com/providers subscribers of the ad-free plan, who have to up their subscription if they want to watch 4K content.
Here’s how the three new Max plans stack up:
With Ads: $9.99/month or $99.99/year
Stream in Full HD on two devices at once
Ad-Free: $15.99/month or $149.99/year
Stream in Full HD on two devices at once, with up to 30 offline downloads
Ultimate Ad-Free: $19.99/month or $199.99/year
Stream in 4K UHD on 4 devices at once, with up to 100 offline downloads
Max is available on phones, tablets, computers, TVs, streaming players, set-top boxes, and game consoles, just like HBO Max. What to watch on Max
Max compiles all the programming from HBO Max as well as favorites from Discovery. The large library of streaming shows and movies spans genres like true crime, reality, food, comedy, and more.
You can access all HBO series and movies, Max originals, and select series and movies from Warner Bros., the DC Universe, Cartoon Network, the Turner Library, Looney Tunes, Adult Swim, and more. You also get unscripted and documentary shows from TV brands like HGTV, the Food Network, TLC, ID, Magnolia, Discovery, and more.
According to Variety, the company has said it will add over 40 new titles to the streaming service every month.
Some of Max’s high-profile programming includes a live-action Harry Potter series, based on the popular children’s novels, along with a series set in the Conjuring universe, a Rick and Morty anime series, a new comedy in the Big Bang Theory universe, a new Fixer Upper offshoot from the Magnolia Network, and plenty more.
That’s in addition to existing HBO and HBO Max projects like a new Game of Thrones prequel, a Penguin series with Colin Farrell reprising his role from The Batman, the Jodie Foster-starring True Detective: Night Country, Park Chan-wook’s The Sympathizer, and many more.
