I suggest Philo...it is a great bargain at $20.00 a month and has an unlimited cloud DVR. I really like it...there are certain channels I really like such as Hallmark's mystery channel and the Travel Channel. You get these with Philo. You can also watch it anywhere. Also, check with your internet provider or cell phone provider as HBO max is free with ATT's best internet. If you roll it in with the phone...you can get the internet for $59.00 and get HBO max for free in my area (Cleveland). You can also get HBO max with some wireless plans...I know ATT has one...I am pretty sure other providers do too.

I barely have time for Netflix and Prime. Hulu would be overkill for me.
