It's getting hard to keep track of HBO these days. The cable channel has been around for years, existing only through cable and satellite providers. Then came HBO GO and HBO NOW which was exclusive to Apple TV, though not for very long. More recently the channel itself came to Sling TV, meaning to subscription to a TV provider was required, though $15 per month was.
Now other customers will be getting the opportunity to get Game of Thrones and all of the other content. Sundar Pichai announced the big news today during the Google I/O event which has just kicked off.
An HBO spokesperson tells BetaNews "HBO NOW, will come to Android this summer along with Cast support for Android, iOS, and web browsers on desktops/laptop computers. Google also announced that, coming soon, it will bring HBO NOW and HBO GO to Android TV".
"We’re looking forward to expanding our relationship with Google through HBO NOW. We have seen through social media that there is great demand for the service among Android and Chromecast users and we’re excited to deliver HBO NOW to them" claims HBO's executive vice president of of domestic network distribution, Bernadette Aulsestia.
None of this is happening right away, but Google promises to begin rolling it out at some point this summer. More details should be available as the launch approaches.
