HBOGO

     The ability to re-watch any show on television new or old is a technology of a generation.  Since Netflix started in 1999 they have been the leader in changing the game of how we watch television on our computers.  The technology spread fast and soon enough every television station will have some type of internet access for live viewing or re-programming.  In 2010 HBO launched its internet streaming syndicator, HBOGO.  This allowed HBO to maintain its credibility as a high powered premium channel with great respect for the quality of programming.

     HBO has been reaching out to service providers to make deals so more people have access to HBO as long as they are paying the premium through the service provider.  Once HBO made a deal with Optimum I immediately created an account with HBO GO.  Since then I have been catching up on my favorite HBO shows like Entourage, Boardwalk Empire, The Sopranos and I can't wait till Game of Thrones season 3 comes out.  What is nice about HBO that differs from companies like Netflix and Hulu Plus is that because HBO has its own programming they can put their shows up on their site immediately after they air giving the viewer the ability to access them anytime.  Netflix has recently taking the role of studio with the release of their first original series House of Cards.  I can't wait to view great television shows on my computer at home on my own time.
