AT&T says it will soon offer a cheaper ad-supported version of HBO Max, but it won’t have cinema releases day and date with the full service.
Your HBO Max subscription could be getting cheaper if you don’t mind watching advertisements, AT&T announced today. Previously AT&T (owners of WarnerMedia, which in turn owns HBO and HBO Max) announced that it would bring the service to 60 new countries in June – and when that happens, AT&T will also launch a cheaper ad-supported price tier, according to information obtained by The Verge. So what’s the catch? Well, you won’t be able to watch cinema releases the same day as they launch in theaters like you can with the full service.
