HBO Max launches on iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV

The new HBO Max is available now, and curates over 10,000 hours of content for all ages, drawing from an extensive, 100-year old library owned by WarnerMedia.

Launch day premieres include all-new Looney Tunes Cartoons, Anna Kendrick in the HBO Max Original "Love Life," Documentary "On the Record," and famous YouTuber LAurDIY's new series Craftopia. Sesame Street's own Elmo has a show — "The Not Too Late Show with Elmo."

After the initial launch, HBO Max Originals will be released on a regular cadence. Upcoming shows will include "The Flight Attendant," based on the best seller by Chris Bohjalian; the "Friends" unscripted cast reunion, and a three-part documentary series on Amy Schumer titled "Expecting Amy."

HBO Max pulls from WarnerMedia's century-old library of fan favorites, including content from CNN, TNT, TBS, truTV, Cartoon Network, Adult Swim, Crunchyroll, Rooster Teeth, Looney Tunes, and more. A selection of classic films are available through a partnership with Turner Classic Movies.

Other existing content includes the entire filmographies of "Friends," "The Big Bang Theory," "Rick and Morty," "Sesame Street," "The O.C.," and "Anthony Bourdain: Parts Unknown." Content to be added later will include "South Park," "Gossip Girl," "The West Wing," and more.

The service costs $14.99 a month.

I’m sure this has been asked before but is this an additional cost to HBO?

How is the streaming quality of the origin HBO content? Same as before, or improved?
