The problem is HBO max is worse than HBO Go was. Content is less visible and harder to explore. The player is worse. Region restrictions are greater aka worse. I have unsubscribed from HBO max because the content was boring. I'm absolutely not interested in superhero stuff. Then there's a LOT of gay content, which I'm also not interested in. And finally depressing dystopian fiction, which I also don't like. And the drug stuff is also degenerate. Nothing interesting.

In fact none of those pay2streamNotOwn services are attractive. Back to piracy for me. At least I can watch what I like when I like, don't have to be online to do so, can copy everywhere.
