The Frontline Impact
How this affects you
This launch will shift popular content like 'House of the Dragon' and future series like the 'Harry Potter TV series' exclusively to HBO Max, requiring viewers to subscribe to the new service for these titles. Other local streaming services like Neon will lose their HBO content, leading to a significant change in New Zealand's streaming landscape.
