Watch out for it… if you have the financial means to pay $17 every month.
The time has come for yet another streaming service to revise its pricing structure. Max, which was once known as HBO Max, HBO Go, HBO, and who knows what else, is the one that is currently running the show. This is the one that has both Game of Thrones and Sopranos.
Something that we had a strong suspicion was going to happen was the fact that the streaming service is going to raise pricing across the board, beginning today. In the event that you are interested in purchasing a membership to House of the Dragon just in time for the second season, the following is how that will affect your financial situation.
There has been an increase in the pricing of the regular ad-free subscription, which now costs $17 per month and $170 per year. This is an increase of fifty cents each month, or twenty dollars per year. As of right now, the most comprehensive ad-free package costs $21 per month or $210 per year. There will be an increase of one dollar per month or ten dollars per year. As part of the ultimate package, you will be able to stream in 4K Ultra High Definition and on up to four devices simultaneously.
There is some good news for those individuals who enjoy watching Discovery reality shows and prestige television that are interrupted by extremely loud advertisements. There will be no change to the Max With Ads plan, which features a monthly fee of $10 or an annual fee of $100.
There will be an increase in the price for existing monthly members on their subsequent billing cycle, which will occur later this month. Subscriptions that are paid annually are locked into the reduced price until they are renewed. Since the streamer changed its name to Max a year ago, this is the first time that prices have been raised.
Recently, Max has not exactly been swamped with a lot of fresh content. As a matter of fact, it has been having somewhat of a cancellation binge. In this month, the premiere of House of the Dragon will take place, but that is about it. It is anticipated that the Penguin series will be released within the next few months, Dune: Prophecy will be released before the end of the year, and The Last of Us season two will be released whenever it is ready. Allow them to boil.
