"Games of Thrones" new episode will be telecast on Apple's newest device and HBO's online exclusive subscription with streaming service, Time reported.
Richard Plepler, chief executive of HBO, announced on the launching of the Apple Watch, that the new season's previews will be featured in HBO's subscription service with cord-free streaming confirming the rumors milling around, Fast Company reported.
HBO Now is giving loyal subscribers a chance to get access to hundreds of HBO's original TV shows and blockbuster movies for a monthly fee of USD15. It is different from HBO Go as HBO Now app will not oblige the viewers to subscribe to its cable service.
"Games of Thrones" new season shows in the trailer the famous monologue of Daenery "I'm going to break the wheel" and also showed scenes for the yet to be shown season.
This is a good deal indeed for HBO who managed to make the partnership exclusive with Apple and put Amazon and Roku down.
There were reports already in the air for a television being made by Apple even when Steve Jobs was still alive. In Jobs' biography written by Walter Isaacson, it only confirmed how interested the late Apple founder was in developing a TV. HBO's partnership help bring the two together: a great device with a remarkable service dedicated to make the subscribers' viewing pleasure a different one.
HBO's mission to bring online content to cable and even to non-cable subscribers is something to watch out for especially with the tie-up with Apple, what more can these subscribers ask for in this modern age of technology.
