If you're ready to commit one year max, you can do it with a 40 percent discount. Right now, all tiers of the streaming service are on sale — that includes the ad-free 4K version for $140 a year, which works out to $12 a month instead of the usual $20 monthly. The cheapest subscription has ads and costs $70 a year, or $5.83 a month instead of $10. Between the two is an ad-free tier without 4K support that costs $105 per year, when you'd normally pay $192 for 12 months.
Annual subscriptions are currently 40 percent off for new and some existing subscribers.
The deal is open to all new subscribers. Existing subscribers who purchase their service directly from Max.com can also take advantage of it. If you are a returning subscriber and previously visited Max.com, Apple App Store or Google Play, you can also get the discount. Unfortunately, only new subscribers through Fire TV are eligible. The timing of the deal is tied to March Madness promotions, as Max will live stream all games of the 2024 NCAA Division I men's basketball championship, along with other live sports.
For those who don't remember, Max is the name given to the streaming service that combines HBO programming with Discovery+ content. While the name may be less memorable, combining the two services means more content to read, from brands like HGTV and Food Network, plus great HBO fare like The last of us and True detective. It's also where you can find Studio Ghibli movies and A24 movies. Further Our flag means death, although cancelled, was fantastic. There's a reason we named Max one of the best streaming services out there.
