HBO’s streaming service will be called HBO Now, priced at $15 per month

HBO_LogoSome new details have popped up regarding HBO’s stand-alone streaming service that’s slated for launch later this year. The service is HBO’s first foray into offering current content without the help of cable and satellite providers and will be a huge deal for cord-cutters.

The service is reportedly going to be called HBO Now, and it will go live in April, roughly a month from now. Pricing is pegged at $15 per month, which is a bit higher than the likes of Netflix and Hulu. Of course, if HBO plans on offering all of their own high quality content, it might be worth the premium over similar services.

There still isn’t any concrete information about how you’ll be able to use HBO Now, but the Apple TV is rumored to be one of the launch partners for the service. Hopefully Android devices including tablets, smartphones, and streaming boxes will be a part of that launch, but we’ll know more as we get closer to the launch.

Are you willing to pay $15 for an HBO streaming service?
