A Shocking Update; Comcast Won't Let You Watch HBO Go on the PS4

I considered finding an image that included a shovel, but that joke has been run dry.

 

So, shocking news, am I right? Comcast refuses to Playstation owners stream HBO Go, but if you're a Comcast subscriber and an HBO Go fan, this is not the first case.

 

But not Comcast. It took Roku and Comcast forever to reach a deal that opened the gates to HBO Go. Amazon still hasn't even gotten there with Fire TV. And this isn't the first time Sony and Comcast have butted heads. You still can't watch HBO Go on the PlayStation 3 app that launched an entire year ago.

 

It's upsetting too as, unlike Comcast vs. Netflix, this is Comcast vs. Sony, as the HBO Go service works on devices other than the Playstation 4. Comcast is seriously go as hard as possible to milk as much money out of an already very profitable service that comes with being a service provider. According to Chris Welch from The Verge, users are really missing out, too.

 

The app is lightning fast, fluid, and intuitive with a gorgeous user interface from top to bottom. Give me this over HBO Go on the Apple TV any day of the week. If you've used HBO Go on Xbox One, you've seen something similar. But if Sony is your console maker of choice, you simply can't have the best HBO Go experience available right now. That sucks and isn't fair.

 

Is this something you guys expect from Comcast? Is this news like saying the grass is green, the sky is blue?

Comcast, go die in a hole. 

 

Then let me know where the hole is so I can piss all over it and then light the whole thing on fire. 

 

What more can I really say? This is the dick move to rival any dick move that might ever exist. This is taking your ball home and then coming back slash the balls of everyone else who stayed to play. 

 

GG Comcast. Really making Wheeler happy he now has the power to slap you silly.

So again, they're blocking a service that people are paying money to use? How is this not illegal yet?

You need at least 54000XP and 3 magic stones from Slick to make that happen.

His post doesn't even meet the guidelines if I recall.

 

I actually started this post an hour ago but didn't finish it until moments ago because I had to help, oh well.
