As close to perfect as it's gonna get if we're being honest. Once they add the rest of the DC & CW, populate their Crunchyroll, Cartoon Network, Hanna Barbera and Adult Swim libraries and start airing spin-off content for GOT, Lord of the Rings and Harry Potter - they'll be a full threat.

[@magic75450]

I think having a strong exclusive is key nowadays. The launch probably would've been so much bigger if it launched with a new GoT season. I don't think the Friends reunion would've been enough, but at least it would've gotten people to use the free trial.

[@tomfriendly2412]

Yeah, I think their anime library is the weakest, which is understandable. Ghibli has some great films, but there aren't a lot of noticable anime in their Crunchyroll collection. Netflix's anime library is only getting bigger and better with the addition of One Piece, too. Sooner or later HBO will understand the value of the anime market just as Netflix has. Streaming services used to see it as a niche market oddly, but now it seems most have gotten better with that kind of thing. Although HBO's anime library isn't weak, it could be stronger. This is coming from a guy who barely watches two episodes of an anime before leaving my interest to rot. Although I do enjoy watching movies in the genre.

[@OdysseyTag]

@@magic75450 Agreed. Originals are the lifeblood of any streaming service and is the key differentiator in this increasingly competitive space. An announced series like GoT's House of Dragons would have done wonders for them on launch.

[@OdysseyTag]

@@tomfriendly2412 Absolutely. Netflix really surprised me with how aggressive they were with their anime offensive - both on the original and acquired side of things. Crunchyroll has got a myriad of anime series under licence that HBO should take advantage of including long-format Shonen titles aswell as the Crunchyroll originals now being made. Loosing the rights to Studio Ghibli is already a blow for Disney and an advantage for HBO in that regard.

Never gonna happen. Too expensive and kids don’t buy traditional toys as much, unless it’s for something very very popular, and those toy deals fund shows like Teen Titans, and lack of that funding is why even though Young Justice season 3 was made, its lower quality than its first two seasons.

[@RastaGamesful]

It is sad that such a promising service started very poorly. At a time when Disney+ just because of one Mandalorian started very successfully although the content there is much less than on HBO Max. I hope the big studio bosses will think about this in the future with the development of these services.

[@thecabbageman1]

Sadly, people think with their nostalgia not their logic. Disney+ makes no sense as an investment. It has nothing other than the mandalorian. And for that, you could just get a free trial after the season finale and binge it. But still they rushed at it like crazy because it's Disney. And since it created their childhoods most people eat up whatever they give them even if they don't try at all. And they rarely try these days

[@TheGeorgeD13]

Tv maniac, if you have kids, Disney + is a fantastic investment. Disney + was not meant for you. It’s targeted towards families with small children.

[@magic75450]

@@thecabbageman1 Disney does have some good content. For example, Gravity Falls and Phineas and Ferb. And let's be honest: Disney+ started strong with originals. At launch, they had about 7 origibals: The Mandalorian, High School Musical show, Encore, Jeff Goldblum show, Forky Asks a Question, Noelle and Lady and the Tramp remake. That's impressive for a launch, especially when compared to HBO MAX. While recently it looks like they don't have much to offer, they still had a Clone Wars season, Togo, Lamp Life (although it's just 12 minutes) and I think Call of the Wild was mabye also an exclusive.

[@thecabbageman1]

@@TheGeorgeD13 Is it though? Out of the three main cartoon chanels Disney's was the least watched. And HBO max has cartoon network + looney tunes. And Netflix has Nickelodeon . So it loses in that area. As for animated movies, most people that are in their twenties or older have them downloaded or in DVDs. I don't think there's anyone that doesn't have the classics. And netflix has an edge there as well since it has dreamworks content

There's also HBO Nordic that works in the Nordic countries and it's basically been a smaller version of HBO Max for years now. All HBO shows and some others as well as tons of movies.

Snyder Cut: allow me to introduce yourself

[@brannon98]

The pricing is my problem why so high

[@sephangelo4603]

I don't live in the US anymore, but I'll be sure to subscribe to it some time. I want the whole DC collection when this new complete streaming service hits internationally.

In the UK where I am from, all the Studio Ghibli films came to Netflix while in the US they went to HBO Max. Like I had seen them all before and love them so it doesn't matter where they are for me personally but I do wonder if they will be on HBO Max when it launches in the UK.

The Streaming Wars isn’t amongst the streaming services; it’s amongst the major movie studios. WB = HBO Max, Disney/Fox= Disney+/Hulu Universal=Peacock, Paramount/Viacom = Netflix Sony & Lionsgate= licenses their content to anyone Any other streaming service or minor service will disappear or be absorbed by the main studios. WB has arguably the best library over the last 100 years and they’ll eventually be on top once they tighten everything up.

I think Netflix is the only one that is handled by themselves. But yes, they made deals with Paramount. I think Amazon Prime and Apple TV+ will stay. Amazon wants people to buy stuff through them, and Amazon Prime is an incentive. Apple wants people to buy Apple products, and Apple TV+ is an incentive.

[@markgarcia8253]

1 # : If you wanna look at it that way. But just because the two biggest companies in the world have services and nearly endless money doesn’t mean they’ll play any factor in the streaming wars. They’re content is vastly outmatched compared to the major studios. Even Sony and Lionsgate can beat Prime and Apple+ if they started their own service. Because it’s the content library is what matters

[@mangosharky4377]

I don’t get how everyone has so many streaming services. Like I have only Netflix and a service for premier leauge, but I might get Disney Plus when it comes here.

[@EdwardNewgate58]

It's mainly because of the exclusive rights to certain films and shows and the originals. Personally, I don't see the appeal of having so many at one time, especially in terms of all those bills adding up. I prefer sharing what services I have with friends or family who have services that I don't. For example if you have Netflix and a friend has HBO Max you can share each others accounts or whatever. I have the Disney bundle which gives me Disney+, Hulu, and ESPN+ (which I hardly use), and once I subscribe to HBO Max, that'll be the only services I'll pay for. As for other services? A friend of mine's lets me use her Netflix account in exchange for me letting her use my Hulu account. I'm not really interested Amazon Prime, CBS All Access, or whatever else is out there. I don't know what Comcast/NBCUniversal plans to bring to the table with Peacock once that comes out, bit I doubt I'll be interested, unless they have a decent library of Universal movies.

[@viciousbane569]

Can you make a video about Amazon Prime Video and Hulu? Because those two are the best streaming services.

[@mr.preston1632]

What? The streaming service with 500 year old UI?

[@travisspazz1624]

Still waiting on the 4k!

[@radhiadeedou8286]

Almost all the movies and shows you mention are on netflix in my country

[@Seablobel8]

You posted this as I am watching HBO max in the background.

[@jasontrautz]

I have been watching it on my fire stick, you just have to add the downloader app. It makes you type in the URL, and then it comes up as HBO now, but has the max Interface. My wife found a how to on the KZbin.

[@businessbuilder92]

People keep saying this but it's not true I have HBO max on my roku stick!

[@InternetsPedestrian]

After all the movie announcements, would love to see a follow-up to this video!

[@da_pikmin_coder8367]

"It has a little something for everyone" emphasis on *little*. 9 Ghibli films, 17 Crunchyroll shows, 1 Arrowverse show, 1 DC Universe original.

[@mr.preston1632]

Idk about you but 17 crunchyroll shows is a lot

[@masterkalel06]

Huh. I was just interested in this for the Snyder Cut but you have piqued my interest.

[@srami004]

Be aware that there are costs that come with the content...such as licensing deals, royalties, and others.

[@JumpyMudkip]

1:39 Sounds like Avatar Roku briefly became a television box during his time training
