Can this actually be true? Or is this just wishful thinking?
HBO Max is the second-largest US SVOD player in terms of revenue, and HBO Max is expected to grow faster than Netflix in the next five years.

Netflix is actually losing customers due to limited content, fading Covid 19, and let's be honest their latest in-house movies/docs are junk. It is Amazon, Disney and soon HBO Max, in this particular order are the leaders. That's right, HBO Max.
For sometime I ragged on it without actually using the service, but after three months as a subscriber my earlier assumption was wrong. It is a serious contender as long as upstairs doesn't sc--w it up.
I am sure they play with the numbers and the captive audiences. I would like to know why sams and target exclusively have att as their wireless provider. I am sure that has something to do with it. once the contracts are up the numbers will drop.
And don't forget they are really counting HBO subscribers on same cost upgrades.
This is a perfect example of someone in marketing trying to turn a terd into a gold nugget because they know that most people don't know squat about how to understand data. Here's an example: Service one has 1,000,000 users and adds another 1,000 in a month. That's 0.1% growth. Service two has 100 users and adds another 100 in a month. That's 100% growth. So, which service is in better shape?
Yes, HBO Max is growing faster than Netflix. Or Disney. Or Hulu or Amazon Prime. That's because there aren't nearly as many people using the platform as are using Netflix, or Disney, or Hulu, or Prime (or Apple ...)
Folks like Stink are betting that people are big enough dopes to fall for it. But hey, congrats to T. Their service has so few people it has the potential to grow faster than any other!
Another Stankey success story. Taking cate of the company. Taking care of the workers.
The author of this story is J. Stankey....
They say whatever they need to say to please investors. That claim was made before an investors meeting. Have you noticed every single presser from Kikar or Stanky claims HBO–T is doing great, we’re ‘leaning into it’, we’re ahead of schedule, crushing it, yet you’re laying off people left and right, cutting benefits, all to make the numbers look better?!? Total hucksters! Kilar is a used car salesman. He played Stankers and the BoD like a fiddle, which was easy as they had NO media knowledge. Kilar is laughing all the way to the bank with his $52 million in salary!
That’s Randy running/crunching the numbers on his One Day a Week in the Office .
And everyone’s aware of how Randy’s pencil is allways on point
He’s a proven person if experience and leadershiT
Lol
Everyone already has D+ & Nflix, so of course they're not going to grow as quickly as max which has maybe a third (?) of the customers the other two have.
The big test for max is going to be customer retention, can they keep the customers that came on to watch theatre releases in–home after they stop doing that.
Yes they do but in this market even 3rd place is fantastic.
I still think Netflix and Disney both dominate T, sorry.
