Essential HBO MAX Thread

Still got that error

My front page is showing Friends, Fresh Prince, HBO and Max Originals.

Just gotta let it marinate and see where they go from here. WarnerMedia's library is pretty damn stacked and trumps any other IMO.

I think it's just a matter of the layout/UI more than anything. I don't think they're lacking content (from what I've seen so far) but they need to do a better job of showcasing it. As much shyt Disney got for their bad launch, you can quickly go on their main page and see that there's something different for everybody without having to click through multiple categories. Same thing with Netflix, Hulu. I think that's what people are really talking about.

It may be better on the TV app. I haven't checked it yet. Just going off the what I see on the phone app and browser. There's a lot of wasted space. I'm just nitpicking. I'm liking what I see overall though.

They also need to get on the 4K bandwagon. Nearly every streaming service is offering it but them. It's no longer a niche thing that they can ignore. Content like GoT, Harry Potter (I get that was a last minute thing) should be easy things to implement considering the 4K content is already out there for it and should've been there at launch.

I think I’m just used to it....

I got the Samsung Q7 and at first it was awkward for me but now I’m used to it.

Normally in the past I’d used my DirecTV, Time Warner or GoogleTV remote more than my tv remote but this remote is the first I’ve ever used more than my provider ever.

I seamlessly maneuver through Netflix, Hulu, YouTube, Prime, etc apps

Prime is the one that's annoying because you gotta use one of them lettered buttons to add to your watchlist. Do you use the voice shyt? I'm sure that helps. I've always been too paranoid for that type of shyt.

Watching right now on my PS4 while I work.

They get points for having The Boondocks up on day one. Looks to be uncensored, too.

And either my TV is great at upconverting (wouldn't know. I haven't watched anything in SD in eons), or the early episodes have been redone in HD.

I got it working on my PS4 late last night. Threw a few items into my List, will check it out some more before work

I always forget the voice shyt but I never really use it on any of my devices.

It’s like you have to speak extra proper and ENUNCIATE to the max.

My voice too “Carolina Southern Black” for that


We ain’t got an accent like say Texas, or Florida or Alabama/Miss but it ain’t the “Queens English

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

They're not they don't have the rights until 2025. They gave them to Universal.

I just clicked they have all the potters

 

[Saysumthinfunnymike]

The movie collection alone is much better than Netflix, Disney and Prime

This movie collection shyts on all them hoes for real

 

[Gaston]

A good amount of those movies are on Netflix, Hulu or cable tv. They will have to wait until the license is over.
