With all the factors mentioned in the article, it looks to me like they missed an obvious one - people don't need HBO to watch movies at home any more. HBO themselves know that their value in the market is original series, but of their entire subscriber base, some subscribe for the exclusive TV shows, some for the sports, and some for the movies. This is the point where those who stayed for the movies are figuring out that they can drop HBO and get movies from Netflix and Redbox or even iTunes and Amazon. -- TV or Not TV ....
