What makes no sense to me (as a lay-person) is the logic behind pulling "MAX Originals", shows like "Not Too Late Show w/ Elmo" which were produced for the streamer, have been available for some time, and aren't in current production (so, effectively, costing nothing for WBD to keep online). What's the benefit of pulling those down?
