what they do is lure you in with unsustainable prices and once they got established slap you with real price. Because for the real price you wouldn’t find it worthy in the first place. But now that you enjoy it it’s more likely you’ll pay more than what you might initially do
Man, they really are like drug dealers…
I gave up on this a few months back as I found better alternatives. To be honest, it was a bit expensive and I was looking for ways to save money each month. There are better alternatives out there which you can definitely consider and save money on it.
btw i don’t get the “download up to 30” limitation.
it’s not like they’re paying for your own disk space?It’s so you don’t buy a month of service, then spend that month ripping everything they’ve got to your own storage and cancel.
The downloads aren’t unencrypted, you can’t play them with any media player. Only their app can decrypt and play it. Has nothing to do with ripping them all in the month, you can do that without downloading them at all and just stream them to rip them.
The point of limiting it to 30 is to prevent someone from downloading them all to their device and then disconnecting the device from the internet permanently so you can have them forever. You’d have to do some date manipulation too in the operating system to keep the app from knowing your subscription actually expired.
Don’t trust DRM
It’s so shady that even Google is backing down from bringing it to Chrome.
I have never seen a company actively promoting that they have less to offer. Jesus Christ will capitalism please just come to a crashing halt already
RRRRRRR ME MATEY. SEEMS TO ME YOU NEED TO BE SAILING THE SEAS. SHALL I RECOMMEND A SEA SHANTY FOR US TO SING?
Yarr harr fiddle de-dee…
Thanks for sharing. I found I got the same email so I canceled immediately. Guess I’ll just watch those shows else where for free 🦜🏴☠️
Stop giving them money then?
AT&T includes the subscription with their cellular package, so they claim its “free”. I’m also not the head of the account. But I agree.
Can’t imagine that’ll last much longer since AT&T sold them.
Honestly, that’s the only reason I have Max, because it’s “free” with my cell plan. If I was paying for it, I would have cancelled it a long time ago. I almost never use it
I was just thinking that I need to cancel my Max … But yeah, it’s included with mobile phone service. 🤷
I canceled hbo max because the price is ridiculous
Know what would solve this problem once and for all? If people collectively decided to boycott “popular culture” and entertain themselves without bowing to the copyright industry
OP, you know what you can remove, right?
I’m not the owner of the account. But I can raise awareness to others about this, including the account owner.
Just use streamio with torrentio add-on or real-debrid. Screw these streaming services.
We appreciate you being a loyal subscriber. For that, we are going to fuck you. Sincerely
Don’t worry, the inevitable price increase isn’t until next week.
Just canceled my service. I wasn’t watching too much on there already and this was ridiculous. They were already one of the priciest options and now I can either lose the 4k I was paying for, or bump up to $20/month? No thank you.
A lot of people don’t even realize they aren’t watching it in 4k. At least, browsers don’t stream it in 4k. You have to install the app on your system for that, either on your TV app store or Windows Store (if on Windows). If you’re on Linux, I have no idea. So many people watching in browsers not realizing they’re paying for 4k that they never use.
Last time I checked/had a streaming subscription, you didn’t get 4k on linux.
For sure yeah, so it may be a whatever for a lot of folks anyway. Just irked me.
