I believe the biggest problem with offering HBOGO outside of a cable
subscription is the contractual obligations they have with big cable
companies. Plus they are owned by Time Warner, a cable company.

Those assholes over at Comcast are offering an "HBO only" plan though:

Hulu has stated that they would have to charge more for a service without
commercials. Maybe they will offer that at some point (at a higher price)
but I would be surprised if many bought it.
