Interesting article about how HBO/Max is raising prices while it’s starting to lose customers. Can the number crunchers in finance and marketing at this channel (and others) find the right balance?

      Could be but I feel like we lack context. 700,000 is a number but large or small depends on what we’re comparing it to.

      Update: just read the article and no real numbers are given. I feel like that’s typical for wired? Not sure, but I don’t remember reading a wired article and ever saying “I feel confident enough to have a data based opinion regarding this subject”

          That’s definitely fair, do you by chance have the total number of subscribers?

            I don’t, but I’m not sure they’re releasing those numbers. The reason I assume a net loss is a quote from the article.

            Max’s subscribers have been “relatively flat” for nearly a year, and the service also lost subscribers in the quarter previous to this one.
