Still $5 too expensive. You'll still need to pay for internet and by that time you would be paying almost the same as a basic package with HBO.


They were NOT going to price it LOWER then cable subscribers pay for it now..   $15 is about that price or lower. The Cable companies would have been pissed off if HBO did that, and they STILL are and will be for many years the normal way people access HBO. 

And you are paying for Internet either way..   so not sure how jusy paying this makes it equal the same as cable..  This is for cord cutters.. People who aren't paying for cable.. and just have internet and do sevices like NetFlix, Hulu, etc..

What if HBO NOW is blocked on Apple devices by your home internet (Comcast)? 

Currently, you can't watch HBO GO on PS3/PS4 at home via Comcast home internet because it's blocked. 

HBO NOW is exclusive to Apple, but Verizon, Comcast, and Time Warner can block streaming via their internet service.
