HBO Go is a video on demand online streaming service which provides access to an extensive selection of movies, television shows, documentaries, comedy specials, and live broadcasts. It is open to use, but you must pay your subscription to your cable company each month to access the service.

HBO Now is a free online streaming service that is offered through HBO directly by using compatibility devices regardless of whether you have an existing cable subscription or not. It also provides access to everything, including the most recent releases, showcased content, live broadcasts, and HBO’s content for a fixed rate. HBO Now necessitates a television subscription, while HBO Go does not.

It can be confusing for some people to understand the difference between HBO GO and HBO Now. HBO GO has already been rebranded to just HBO, and it is a type of streaming service that will be free with your subscription to HBO. HBO Now, on the other hand, is another type of streaming service from another company. There are different ways that people can get these streaming subscriptions.

For example, HBO Go is available if you would purchase through Amazon, although the best way to get this is still from a TV service provider. HBO Go has already been removed from a lot of apps, though and you have the option to try out HBO Now or HBO Max instead.

HBO Go and HBO Now gives you access to a lot of movies, TV series, documentaries, and other materials that can be streamed online. Both are streaming services from HBO; they only differ from each other in terms of various packages that are embedded in their respective services. Although HBO Go is free, you will need to have a satellite TV or cable subscription.

On the other hand, you don't need to have a satellite TV subscription before you can enjoy the service of HBO Now; all you need to do is to sign up on HBO Now and subscribe. Both streaming services give you the same content since both are from HBO. However, HBO Go can only be used if it is available in your satellite TV subscription package, while HBO Now can be enjoyed not only if it is available on your cable subscription package, but you can also get it from HBO.
