- It was announced at the Time Warner Inc. Investor Meeting that HBO will offer a stand-alone HBO streaming service, which will not be linked to a cable or satellite provider’s subscription starting in 2015. HBO CEO Richard Plepler had the following to say about the service…
“That is a large and growing opportunity that should no longer be left untapped. It is time to remove all barriers to those who want HBO. So, in 2015, we will launch a stand-alone, over-the-top, HBO service in the United States. We will work with our current partners. And, we will explore models with new partners. All in, there are 80 million homes that do not have HBO and we will use all means at our disposal to go after them.”
No specifics about the service or cost were revealed.
