HBO Max Ad-Free Plan to Drop 4K Streaming and Reduce Concurrent Streams in Early December

HBO Max is making changes to its subscription plans, affecting its ad-free tier. Starting in early December, subscribers on the ad-free plan will no longer have access to 4K resolution or the ability to stream on three devices simultaneously. The changes will also reduce concurrent streams from three to two. The decision has received criticism as subscribers will still be paying $192 annually while not completely avoiding ads.
