HBO channel will launch its online rental next year

It’s no secret that the number of users willing to pay for high-quality movie and TV series online service is growing very fast. Netflix success is not the only, but illustrative example. Focusing on them, cable channel HBO, part of the corporation Time Warner, decided to enter the online rental market with its own project, which will be launched in 2015. This is the head of HBO Richard Plepler announced at a meeting of shareholders Time Warner today.







So far this is all information - neither prices nor details about the project yet. Only general words that the current partners of the company will be connected to the launch.



This is a globally important news, because Until now, the ability to watch HBO TV shows on the air required a paid subscription to cable TV. Starting next year, it will be possible to watch new series of popular shows live with America. Netflix immediately responded to this news, calling it “inevitable and reasonable” (I would add the long-awaited).

One can only assume that the service will be launched by April 2015 - i.e. for the start of the fifth season of the Game of Thrones. The second important question is whether there will be any territorial restrictions for users.
