Cable Cord Cutters Thread: Sling, Hulu, YouTube TV, Netflix, and more!

I actually like HBO Max’s look. I haven’t had problems with the app on my Apple TV. They’ve definitely improved the interface since it first launched.

Yeah the current HBO Max interface has vastly improved and it doesn't buffer like it used to when you navigate through stuff.

Also HBO Max has a better design on categorizing their content, even better than Disney+ or Hulu.

I had the opposite problem it would skip entire episodes when I tried to rewind or fast forward.

 

[Prison Mike]

Yeah definitely prefer HBO Max over the other streaming apps (in terms of interface and usability). Well, also content wise too.

Netflix adds “extra home” fee, will block usage in other homes if you don’t pay

 

[Primal Slayer]

Everything happening with HBO Max is why I still strongly believe in physical media. Removing tv shows and movies is so stupid.

Screw you Netflix!

‘Days Of Our Lives’ Moving From NBC To Peacock
My family is more of a Young and the Restless and Bold and Beautiful type family but this is still shocking. There’s a lot of older people who don’t do streaming.

I’m wondering if the other soaps are next. Like my grandma is old school and doesn’t bother with streaming unless one of us puts a movie on that she wants to see like Dolemite Is My Name for example so this an interesting development.

Streaming will slowly become more and more like cable.

The Soap channel? Is that still a thing?

Probably not able to happen due to server sizes but....these streaming apps should be adding all the other soaps they own. I want a full rewatch of Passions. Give us ALL the All My Children from way back when lol.

i doubt it's still around. i'd like to find Sunset Beach episodes and old General Hospitals from when i was in school

 

[Prison Mike]

Passions was pretty crazy. Also the demon possession storyline on Days back in the 90s haha

I mean isn't that what's going to happen? Although, I suspect ESPN+ will have a bundle still.
