How to Handle Internet Indecision
Posted in: Today's Chili
There are 6,245 restaurants on Seamless in New York City. Sometimes deciding between a roast beef sandwich and a pepperoni pizza is an impossible choice. But this is not an isolated dilemma—the question of what to watch, what to eat, and what to click is indicative of an issue that plagues the whole internet.

Netflix must be really laughing its ass off right now, as everyone trying to watch the season finale of True Detective complain about HBO GO not being available. HBO GO has crashed—it’s been deader than Rust Cohle’s soul for the last three hours.

Earlier this week the much awaited HBO Go app for the Sony PlayStation 3 was released. The app allows people to watch all current and past episodes of HBO’s shows as well as a plethora of movies through their console. As you would imagine, an internet connection is required to stream those episodes, and Comcast Xfinity subscribers have struck out quite badly. It turns out that Comcast isn’t letting subscribers stream content through HBO Go for PlayStation, so the only option they have right now is to go with another provider, if they want to use HBO GO for PS3.

It may not necessarily be a crime, but a lot of subscription services would prefer that their subscribers keep their account credentials to themselves and not go about sharing it with friends and family who might have otherwise signed up, and paid mind you, for said subscription service. This doesn’t bother HBO though, CEO richard Plepler revealed in a recent interview. He said that its not like the cable juggernaut isn’t unmindful of the fact that subscribers are doing this, “it just has no impact on the business,” Plepler says.
Plepler was taking to Buzzfeed, so it wasn’t really a formal interview to begin with, the CEO isn’t even donning a necktie, most CEOs don’t give interviews without neckties! He believes that this is actually a smart marketing ploy that brings in more HBO viewers, “We’re in the business of creating addicts,” Plepler boasts in a way that would put Walter White to shame. So yeah, HBO’s cool like that, it doesn’t mind people sharing passwords, though it would go a long way if HBO GO was actually offered unbundled from cable packages. Plepler says that this is a move that he’s “always thinking about,” but its probably not going to happen soon.
