As WarnerMedia reveals new details regarding the pricing/release date of HBO Max and the growing lineup of original content, the company is also revealing more about how it plans to tackle one of the more difficult problems facing streaming services – what to do about all the subscribers who share their passwords with friends and family?
The good news is that WarnerMedia seems to have no immediate plan of cracking down on password sharing, much less taking legal action against subscribers. The bad news is that the company is taking this practice into account and may start pricing the HBO Max service accordingly. Long story short – expect to start paying more if your password is being shared among several friends and family members.
