Yeah but what tier Max?

Its is already kind of a ripoff as HBO Max has very little 4k content to justify the upcharge at the present time.

On DirecTV its usually over $20 dollars after tax and various fees.

Considering the monthly price for HBO is the same as what they're charging for 4k, giving subs the middle is less of a tier and more of a finger.

RIP.

HBO Max's streams of Babylon 5 were all sorts of FUBAR'd anyway. From glitched episodes and missing content at the start, to Season 2 being stereo only by the end.

I guess we now know what direction "Max" is going to take... one designed to appeal to nobody but Chip and Joanna.

Another casualty, the Degrassi reboot is cancelled.

Bye Bye Bunny, the Looney Tunes musical that was being shopped to other streamers, has apparently been cancelled and its animators laid off. Still no word on the fate of Batman: Caped Crusader.

Whelp hope you weren't looking forward to the new Batman show because the hits just keep on coming.

And now Sesame Street's getting the boot. FRICKEN SESAME STREET!

Death by a thousand cuts. =(

Just a delay of execution. Its still coming.

It just keeps getting worse...

We wont know for certain for another 24 hours but it ain't looking to good right now for HBO Max.

Oh I wouldn't be surprised that AT&T probably would have messed things up if given the chance. The thing is Time Warner was so fubar'd from the underwhelming takes of BvS and the Whedon Justice League (and apparently also Crazy Rich Asians of all things due massive overspending on the...

Yeah but ironically it probably isn't AT&T's fault. Toby Emerich's pile of multi million dollar duds made Time Warner a friggen boat anchor by the time they got hold of it. All the Bell really wanted was HBO and ultimately they couldn't even keep that. EDIT -- there appear to be conflicting...

If this is true, everything that possibly could go wrong with the Warner Discovery merger for HBO Max has GONE WRONG. COMPLETE TOTAL DISASTER. What a waste.

This is beginning to look a bit bleak.

My Yamaha says its DD+ 640kbps. *shrug*

I don't have my Nvidia Shield with me but if its playing in anything other than PCM 2.0 I'll be shocked.

That would have nothing to do with this. Unti; the update HBO Max had 5.1 support on AndroidTV using AC3. After the update they're not supporting AC3 either. So there is no surround sound at all. EDIT: Tech support is on the case

Still no 5.1/Atmos support for AndroidTV post update.

New update has now removed 5.1 support altogether from Nvidia Shield. Way to go guys! =/ EDIT: this has been confirmed to be the case with all AndroidTVs. Wonderful! What a complete clustersnafu. EDIT 2: 24 hours later still broken.

Apparently its Dolby MAT according to the Apple TV Forums. I honestly don't know how Apple Tvs work. So far all I know is Roku is the only one supporting Dolby + because HBO abruptly turned it off for everything else.

I looked it up. Also I'm still only getting AC3 on the Nvidia.

ADDENDUM TO THIS: HBO Max now supports Dolby Plus...on Roku and Roku alone.

It is now. Update your HBO App.

Plain old AC3 for everything, including their originals. Atmos only works on E-AC3 (which is what Netflix, Amazon, and Disney+ use) and above.

At the moment, HBO Max doesn't use the correct codec to support Atmos.
