The HBO Max streaming service has been announced by WarnerMedia as a new all-in-one option for consumers that will place all their favorite content from various brands in one spot. The service will offer content from companies such as Warner Bros., DC Entertainment, TBS, TNT, CNN, Cartoon Network and many more that have previously been reserved for cable subscribers. This will enable consumers to access exclusive content they won't find anywhere else as well as classic favorites including Friends and The Fresh Prince of Bel Air, amongst others.
The HBO Max streaming service will launch in spring 2020 and comes as part of an increasingly segmented digital content market as companies create their own networks that compete against major players like Netflix.
