HBO is way behind the curve in terms of their streaming service and if they want to compete with Netflix, Disney+ and Amazon, releasing their 2021 slate and beyond directly to HBO Max should help to increase their viewership.
As I previously mentioned, HBO Max has only 36 million subscribers and only 8 million HBO Max activations.
Netflix currently has more than 173 million subs while Disney+ has 74 million and they're hoping to reach 170 million by 2025.
HBO Max needed to do something drastic, especially since they haven't had any new and sustainable "Water Cooler" TV series in years.
