HBO Now Coming to PlayStation Game Consoles, Vue Lineup

HBO and Cinemax will become part of the lineup on Sony's PlayStation Vue streaming service, and HBO's HBO Now direct-to-consumer service will be integrated into Sony's PS3 and PS4 game consoles, PlayStation Vue head Dwayne Benefield said in a blog post Thursday. It said the Vue arrangement is the first time Cinemax and HBO live programming will be available as stand-alone channel offerings instead of as part of a bundle. Vue customers will be able to subscribe to them as stand-alone channels for $15 a month each or add them to an existing Vue plan.
