Re: [TV orNotTV] HBO Max officially becomes Max in May

2023-04-12 Thread PGage
Two things:

1. I think they are explaining this wrong. They should say they are keeping
HBO as is, but changing the name of the streaming hub where it is found.
Looking for HBO? Go to Max, and you will find it. As Zas does imply, if
Warners had originally got their streamer Max and told subscribers they
could access HBO there, everyone would have been fine.

2. The two vs four streams distinction sounds like they are cracking down
on password sharing too. I’m not sure how it works, but I am sure that
currently I often have HBO being streamed by three or four different
members of me family in different locations.

2023-04-12 Thread M-D November
One thing that's unclear from this announcement is which tier of service 
will be provided to cable HBO subscribers; it's currently the ad-free tier, 
but there's no 'ultimate' tier under the existing structure, so...

[TV orNotTV] NotTV - but streaming - Coachella 2023

2023-04-12 Thread Doug Eastick
Coachella - YouTube 

Coachella Valley Music Festival (Weekend 1) starts this Friday.
Typically they livestream 3 feeds and kinda-semi-live.   This year, they
are doing all stages on both weekends, and I'm guessing live.

If you are going, let me know cuz I'm going again.

2023-04-12 Thread Jim Ellwanger
This was almost certainly an error with their master control automation system 
(either it was programmed incorrectly in the first place, or there was a glitch 
that made it skip over the Final Jeopardy! segment), nothing specifically 
nefarious.

[TV orNotTV] Re: OT: Twitter labels NPR a propaganda arm of the government

2023-04-12 Thread M-D November
Space Karen consented to changing the label to "Government funded media", 
but NPR's had enough - they're quitting Twitter entirely (although 
individual journalists/personalities are still free to use the service):
