Max just launched in Australia today (March 31), and I’m already signing up, because I need to maintain my HBO fix. Succession, The Last of Us, House of the Dragon, True Detective, you know the drill.

No word yet on what this means for Binge, but let’s be real — if Max has HBO directly, Binge might be on borrowed time.
About Max
Max just launched in Australia, finally bringing all that juicy HBO, Warner Bros., and Discovery content into one proper streaming platform. It’s like Binge’s cooler, more put-together sibling — the one that actually shows up with all the good stuff. If you’ve been juggling different services or waiting for a proper home for top-tier shows, this is it.
