The streaming wars are in full swing, and it's getting a little crowded on that battlefield. We've gotten to the point where there are too many streaming services for one person to reasonably follow without spending themselves into the poorhouse, with some companies even having multiple services you have to pay for separately. To wit: did you know that Disney owns both Disney+ and Hulu? It justifies separating the two by saying that it would be inappropriate to host some of Hulu's more mature content on Disney+, but if it will save me money, I will gladly put The Handmaid's Tale next to Frozen or whatever.
That's why it's refreshing to hear that two formerly separate streaming services will be combining: according to Variety, HBO Max will be absorbing Discovery+ when WarnerMedia and Discovery merge into Warner Bros. Discovery in the near future.
