Beards: "nobody has Max"
Real world:
Warner Bros. Discovery reported its third-quarter 2024 earnings results Thursday.

They are clinging to a report that Max only accounts for 2% of streaming in the U.S. but nobody actually knows what the numbers really are because these streaming platforms don't release their real data.
Netflix tried to say 65 million people watched Tyson and Paul. Read the fine print and it says "at least one minute".... meaning they were cooking the books even in their press releases. Part of the reason why Hollywood was on strike is because they were trying to get these streamers to release data and it still went nowhere.
Even when they do these so-called "data dumps" they still leave a lot unclear
The streaming giant has released a new report about what people are watching on its service, but it’s still holding back crucial viewership data.
