It counts like Gary Paytons ring counts.

The reason they are making these moves is because it flopped. The roll out was terrible and confusing to casual consumers. This should bring more eyes to it and is a rebranding of sorts. They are still not on the largest streaming device but I assume this will be rectified by Christmas. The overall catalog is impressive but they have made at most midly entertaining originals so far. Even D+ has one killer app show

Yeah, I agree with all this. I think people on here are just looking at the dope library when labeling it 'the best' it's not like a market position thing for them.

Did hbo join somebody else? That Gary payton analogy makes no sense.

And it didn't flop, they passed their year end goals a few months back despite it but being on all platforms.

Yes I'm sure they were very happy with 8.6 million activations after half a year and getting stomped by Disney+ and Netflix. This power move had nothing at all to do with that :mjgrin:
