Since we have just had the launch of Max I had this thought If A&E were to set up a streaming service in Australia would it most likely play out? Its just that I donât this they have one. Do they?
The current state of play with the big six studios in Hollywood:
Disney/20th Century Studios: Disney+
Universal: Binge, but some product are on Netflix, Prime and Stan
Warner: Max
Paramount: Paramount+
Sony: no proper streaming service, product is divided between Binge, Stan, Netflix and Prime
MGM: Prime (some are on the add-on MGM+), Warner-distributed MGM product is on Max. Some MGM titles are on Stan.
I think I might know a logo they could use ![]()
When on earth will seven enter the Paid streaming world?
I think the one to keep an eye on will be DAZN and what they do with Binge, if they strip it enough and want to offload the remains, hey presto, 7 could have a ready made option available to them.
When they give up on people streaming it free on 7. ![]()
they already tried this ![]()

Thank god for Game Pass in Australia
Had to squeeze it in there to see if someone would pick up on it ![]()
You would think as they shut down Foxtel theyâd want to keep binge
I suspect they wonât, although that becomes a maybe if someone partners with them. They seem to be burned from previous attempts to diversify.
Theyâve gone all in on this âfree to streamâ concept around sports content - having a paid-for system (even if it doesnât have sport) possibly undermines this mantra.
(I look forward to this aging like milk)
Headline (or teaser) interestingly makes no mention of the fact thereâs a heftyish price increase too.
No mention of it in the entire article..
Itâs just a regurtiation of the press release. Nothing new in there at all.
