You have to figure that the current deal HBO Max brokered directly with users when the channel was evicted from Amazon videos channel options is 50% off the ad-free price for 6 months. That started around the 3rd week of September 2021 for me. My 50% off deal ceases in March 2022, at which point I'll be canceling the service. I have greatly enjoyed HBO Max, but on general principle, I'll cancel it. I suspect many millions of others who joined during the same deal in September 2021 will do the same.
So what do you think the chances are that a new deal (undoubtedly not 50% off) will arise shortly thereafter?
So one movie made you cancel. They have really good stuff for a year now and still do. Maybe next time read some reviews before you get a service just for that. Or look what else is on said service.
Y'all still use multiple streaming services? For Android users, just download the APK for Moviebox Pro and just $25 a year for every show that every streaming service offers.
I think the best way to do it nowadays is to just subscribe when there's something you want to watch, binge, then cancel after a month.
I'm currently finishing up Star Trek Discovery on Paramount then once that's done I'll cancel it for a while until there's something else to watch. Once the prequel for Game of Thrones comes on, I'll probably re-subscribe to HBO Max. I'm not convinced there's enough content on HBO max to make it worthwhile to pay $12 per month.
Subscribing for 3 months a year for HBO max, but spaced out 4 months each time seems the most economical. You could probably even get a free trial thrown in to extend it a little bit if you use a new email address. And I'm also pretty sure they'll give a lot of retention offers as well.
Yes it is severely lacking. Had it for years and unless I had an urge to watch an old movie it wasn't worth it. There is sadly more recent and relevant movies on prime
I'd love to know what you consider good content if you think HBO Max is lacking content. It has so many good shows and movies.
Thanks OP for posting it, but IMO this is not such a good deal. The current price for, say, the ad-free yearly subscription is $149.99. A year with the offer (12 months at $11.99) is $143.88. Very little savings.

I have an LG OLED B8, so I'm sure you don't need a newer TV to see it.
