HBO Max buffers content and fails to play all the time for me (on Samsung Smart TV), which almost never happens with Netflix.

I love a lot of HBO Max content (especially Turner Classic Movies) but the app is experience is painful.

Yea HBO's app is incredibly broken. I don't understand how the rewind button is still broken. At least 20% of the time when I rewind the app crashes, how is that even possible in 2022? Seems like they're doing it on purpose to try to get you to pay attention.

The state of media Apps in General is REALLY low. Paramount+ makes me turn on subtitles for EVERY episode and ignores the system settings, HBO Max's app is a dumpster fire, Netflix doesn't integrate with Apple TV or the algo driven listings are terrible, Hulu is a broken mess all around. In fact the only media app I enjoy using is Apple TV+/TV.app.

Amazon prime UI and search is kinda shit, but if I found an interesting show to watch (to be honest I’m using tiktok as my recommandation engine) I search for it then continue watching from the Apple TV app
