essentially, hbo max is a subsidiarity of warner media and so warner media is saying we will give up potential billions in box office and put that into a streaming service it is worth it. that is something that disney has seen success with. disney has seen success with. disney is a company that has, on paper, lost a lot of money this year through its state —— closed theme parks and no movies in theatres but stock is up movies in theatres but stock is up because investors believe there streaming service is the future. and so the hope is that warner media will do the same thing. and every time we talk about a streaming service that comes up about a streaming service that comes up in the news in some way, hbo max today and disney plus recently, we always compare it to netflix. we also then say when do we get to saturation? how many of these set box streaming services do we have to sign up to? it is interesting because you asked me one month ago if hbo max was a streaming service, the answer was no. now, it is in the game and for the number of movies that are going there, you would n
