What Is the Difference Between HBO Go and HBO Now?

Streaming services have become rather popular with consumers in recent years. Two such services available from HBO are HBO Go and HBO Now. There are subtle differences between the two services consumers should be aware of to ensure they are selecting the right streaming service to suit their needs and devices.

HBO Go

HBO Go is included with a paid subscription to HBO premium channel service through your cable or satellite TV provider. It allows you to stream you favorite episodes of HBO content through a variety of devices, including your smartphone and tablet devices. In addition, multiple users can stream content simultaneously. With HBO Go you do have to activate each device you want to use with this streaming service.

HBO Now

HBO Now is a stand-alone streaming service for people who do not subscribe to HBO premium channels, or do not have cable or satellite TV. It allows people direct access to the same content and features found on HBO Go.

This streaming service is now available on a variety of devices, including Android, Roku, Amazon Fire, and others. Unlike HBO Go, you are not required to register devices before being able to use the service, and only have to sign in with your email address and password to access content.
