PSA: That app that you use to watch Succession and all kinds of other HBO content?
It’s no longer HBO Max. Say hello, instead, to … Max.
The idea, I guess, is that it takes out the HBO part of things because HBO Max has content from other companies after WarnerMedia and Discovery merged. Confusing? Maybe a little bit. But it’s not that big of a name change, so we’ll all get used to it in no time.
That said: Now that the change has happened, Twitter of course had so many jokes about the streaming service making the switch in moniker:
Apple AirPods Pro are on sale for under $200
So many jokes

With the rebrand of HBO Max to simply just 'Max', CEO David Zaslav has confirmed today that he will be rebranding The Sopranos to 'Big Mafia Show'.

I don’t mind the name change (HBO Max to Max); but do they really need to change their colors from purple to blue? Purple made them stand out from the other streaming services (If it ain't broke, don't fix it). pic.twitter.com/7QrpMOnWr9

I actually love that HBO Max is now Max because it shows me that I’m not the only one who can make very expensive mistakes.
