Warner Bros. Discovery Direct-to-Consumer, also known as Home Box Office, Max, HBO Max, and Discovery+, is a privately owned subsidiary of Warner Bros. Discovery, headquartered in the US. Founded in 1972, with approximately 4,250 employees, it reported $10.9 billion in revenue as of 2025. The company's direct-to-consumer business encompasses streaming services, including Max, HBO Max, and discovery+, alongside premium pay-TV services such as HBO. Functioning as an American subscription video on-demand over-the-top (OTT) streaming service, it offers diverse content, including movies, TV shows, documentaries, and original programming. It reported a total of 97.7 million DTC subscribers as of December 31, 2023. Its subsidiaries include HBO, Open AP, You.i TV, and iStreamPlanet.
U.S. District Judge Araceli Martínez-Olguín on July 23, 2026, extended the pause on Paramount Skydance's proposed $110 billion acquisition of Warner Bros. Discovery until August 17. This ruling grants Paramount Skydance additional time to argue against a potential months-long delay as the case plays out. The extension follows multiple challenges to the deal, including opposition from California and 11 other U.S. states. The judge's order ensures the merger will not finalize before August 18.
