You're not serious, are you?

Surely you know that it is the most pirated TV series of all time and one of the big reasons HBO Now even exists (ie people wanted to watch GoT, but not have to pay for cable and then HBO on top of that)

I think you mean HBO GO

Also I edited my comment so please do so for when you quoted it.  Didn't realize how late that happened

Nah, I mean HBO Now.

HBO Go did not solve the problem of being about to watch HBO shows without having to pay for cable. In fact, that's not even why HBO Go exists; it exists so you can get what you pay for, on the go. But still, you have to pay for cable first in order to get HBO, and then you get HBO Go.

HBO Now, however, cuts out the need for cable. You can just pay $15 a month (I swear, I don't work for them lol) and watch their shows on your devices. Without needing Comcast, Time Warner, DirecTV, etc. This comic sums up why HBO Now exists.
