How much is HBO and is it worth it?

1 Answer

Answer :

answer:for me, I think it was $11 or $12 a month, but most cable companies have some kind of promotion with other movie channels where you get it free for a period of time… for me it was a year… and then you pay the extra cost after the promotion runs out. I think it’s worth it because they’ve got pretty decent movies and stuff too, and their On Demand is free if you subscribe to them.
