I can't answer for what is in the contracts, but the HBO GO app requires that
the user pay an MVPD for the HBO service. So it works just like the other
streaming apps for MVPD channels - i.e. you need to enter a username and
password, AND also pay for the HBO premium service.
Yes, of course, and Comcast, et al, still get their cut and keep their
bundled customers.
At some point--assuming the bandwidth remains available for a good
price--cord-cutters and the never-corded will grow enough that HBO will
want to try to reach that market.
I wonder whether they will be contractually capable of reaching that
market a la carte.
