Moving Discovery content to a separate pricing tier makes sense. Why would you want to pay HBO premium pricing ($15+) for lifestyle shows that used to be available for, I think, $8? Unlike some brand portfolios, the overlap in viewership between lifestyle content and premium shows/movies really is stark and WB doesn't have anything that sits between those categories that could entice people to want to whole enchilada.
MAX Changing Names Again...

What didn't make sense from a WBD perspective was putting the Discovery content on MAX when they already had a Discovery+ streaming app for it. I have always had the 4K version of HBO / Max and when they added the Discovery, HGTV, and Magnolia Network channel content to it I was able to cancel my separate Discovery+ ad-free account so it was great for me. I would like to see that content stay in the new HBO Max to keep me from subscribing back to Discovery+. I never understood people that subscribe to HBO / Max were so upset when they added the Discovery content. No one was forcing them to watch it if they detest it so much. The Discovery content didn't taint the HBO / Max content just by being on the same service.
I'd bet that adding Discovery content had no bearing on the cutback of HBO content creation. That was just Zaslav being an idiot...which he still is.
i agree with the part about people complaining about getting more content for free.
Getting rid of the separate app is fine, since it does save money in development and maintenance, but I always thought Disc+ should have been an add-on tier within Max. Sorta like Disney+ and Hulu. You can have D+ without Hulu, but if you have Hulu, it unlocks stuff in the D+ app.
Yeah but they didn't get rid of the separate Discovery+ app so they saved nothing. I'm sure there was others besides me that canceled their Discovery+ subscription when they added that content to MAX so in my case that was one less subscriber they had because I already had HBO before it became MAX so it isn't like they gained a new subscriber.
When you have an idiot for a CEO, along with additional idiots working under him, you get a monumental idiotic move like this.

Here is a list of movies and shows quietly leaving Max on May 2025
Since Max doesn't want to list them on their press releases, these movies and shows are leaving during May 2025 in the U.S. region. Most of these titles were located from YouTube TV and the Last Chance tab which can usually be found by clicking the search button or movie tab. Additional titles announced as leaving Max through Prime Video, Movie of the Night, or other platforms will be added at a later date.
*Removal dates are subject to change. As of now, all titles listed below their expiration dates will leave at 9 PM PST.*
*The oldest episode of Real Time With Bill Maher will leave Max every Tuesday night*
*The oldest episode of Last Week Tonight with John Oliver will leave Max every Thursday night*
†Series that'll most likely get their expiration date extended.
*Last updated on 5/23/25*

Huh? Discovery is removing its own shows from its network? I watch Ghost Adventures on Trvl and they're right in the middle of a new season. Am I missing something?
I believe they are going to put most Discovery content on Discovery+.
Still confused. The shows they air on linear networks like Travl... those aren't going away?
