Max, the new streaming platform from Warner Bros. Discovery, coming soon to Spain. New video on demand service will replace the current one HBO Max, which replaced the old HBO last year 2021. Specifically, the Max will be launched in Spain on May 21. For this reason, both active subscribers of the service and potential new customers had many doubts about the new version. However, the company has not announced prices, plans, or how the transfer of subscriptions will be carried out.
Now, with just over a month left, all the answers have already been given. Plan with Max is to combine content HBO Max, Discovery+ And Eurosport. This includes films, TV series and shows from Warner Bros, DC Universe, HBO Originals, Max Originals, Eurosport, Discovery, TLC and Cartoon Networks. That is, customers who rent it will be able to enjoy a much wider audiovisual offer.
On May 21, HBO Max customers who have not canceled their subscription will automatically become Max customers. When you open the HBO Max app on smartphones, tablets, or other devices, you’ll need to download Max’s new app. On the other hand, when you access the hbomax.com website, it will be redirected directly to max.com. In both cases, it will be sufficient to re-enter the same current login details. HBO Max profiles, viewing history, listings, and settings will automatically transfer to Max. However, uploads and personalized profile photos will be deleted and will no longer be available.

Advertising
One of the new features of Max is that live content can contain advertising, sponsorship, product placement or other interruptions. In addition, viewing such on-demand content may also be sponsored or contain product placement. This is because live streams may have advertisements, so if Max is subscribed to them, they will appear as well. But at least for now, original content won’t have ads, as is the case with Netflix and Amazon Prime Video.
Share accounts
The last point that has generated a lot of interest is possibility of exchanging accounts. Some platforms, such as Netflix, have introduced restrictions in this regard in recent months. However, for now, Max will not prevent people from using the same account in different homes. Of course, the company does not approve of this practice.
