Discovery said that existing subscribers on the ad-free plan would be able to hang onto certain perks (like 4K streaming) for at least the next six months without needing to spend more money.
Max is emailing affected customers, letting them know that while their monthly price of $15.99 will remain the same moving forward, they’ll be losing a couple of perks on or after December 5th.
Specifically, 4K (and HDR) streaming will be removed for legacy customers; they’ll now be limited to HD quality, just like anyone signing up for Max’s ad-free tier today would be.
Legacy ad-free subscribers also had an extra concurrent stream (for a total of three) compared to the standard two that new signups on the $15.99 plan normally receive.
Downloads are unaffected by this change: both legacy and current ad-free customers can save up to 30 titles on supported devices for offline viewing when they’re without a data connection.
Max’s cheapest “with ads” tier costs $9.99, and although it doesn’t include offline downloads, it still allows for two simultaneous streams and offers HD picture quality.
