A HBO Max finally converted Max here in Brazil, which brings several changes to the streaming platform, from the appearance to the prices of the plans.
It is worth remembering that users will retain the features and pricing of their current plan for a limited time after launch Max.
Likewise users of HBO Max through which the introductory offer is billed with a 50% discount HBO Max maintains the discount as long as they comply with the terms and conditions of the promotion.
Nevertheless, users of the platform protested on social media and are already complaining about the changes and the lack of content.
Check out the reactions and the table of plan changes:
Hi guys, Max misses a lot of things that HBO Max had.
Much of the current content that has arrived in the last few months is still pending.
It remains to be seen whether they will add it in the next few days or not at all.
Even the movie “ScoobyDoo and Crypto” is no longer available. pic.twitter.com/c098wn4xon

I canceled HBO MAX because the app sucks and keeps crashing. I saw that the app switched to Max and reactivated the subscription to see if it was better. IT'S STILL THE SAME SHIT, impossible not to cancel pic.twitter.com/I2pab2HnFP

In short, Max is HBO Max in a different color and everyone is downgraded to the intermediate plan just so Zaslav can charge more for 4K
