The Best Max Deals for October 2024

Max is home to some incredibly high-quality films and shows, including House of the Dragon, The Last of Us, Succession, and The Penguin (you can read our The Penguin review here). If you've been hoping to start up an account to dig into that library, we're here to help! We're keeping track of the best price right now for Max subscriptions, along with any deals as they appear.

This includes bundle deals like the recently-announced Max, Hulu, and Disney+ bundle, which is one you absolutely don't want to miss out on. This mega bundle starts at just $16.99/month, which is an astonishing price to have three very popular streaming services right in the palm of your hand. And with Disney and Hulu's prices going up, this bundle is the best value for your money on these services. You can learn more about that bundle deal and Max's subscription plans below.

How to Get the Disney Plus, Hulu, and Max Streaming Bundle

It's official, Disney and Warner Bros. Discovery have launched the brand-new Disney+, Hulu, and Max streaming bundle. The bundle can be purchased on any of the three streaming services and starts at $16.99/month for the ad-supported tier or $29.99/month for ad-free access across all three platforms. If you're looking to cut down on streaming costs and currently own all three of these, this is an excellent bundle to invest in. It'll save you quite a bit compared to what you'd pay for the three of them separately – 34% on the ad-supported plan and 38% on the ad-free plan!

To learn more about how to get started with this bundle as a new or existing subscriber, head to our guide on how to get (or switch over to) the Disney+/Hulu/Max streaming bundle. It's worth signing up for this right now as well, given Hulu and Disney Plus have increased their prices, so you'll ultimately be saving money with this bundle.

Subscribe to Max

If you're just looking to sign up for a standard Max subscription, you have four different options to choose from:

• $9.99/month with ads
• $99.99/year with ads (Save $19 off the monthly plan)
• $16.99/month ad-free
• $169.99/year ad-free (Save $33 off the monthly plan)

The ad-free tier also allows users to download shows and movies to watch on the go. Both of the tiers allow up to two concurrent streams.

Max also has an additional Tier called Max Ultimate Ad Free, and it's the most premium tier of them all. The details are as follows:

• $20.99/month, ad-free with four concurrent streams
• $209.99/year, ad-free with four concurrent streams

There is currently no Max free trial available as of October 2024.

Max: Bundle to Best

Alongside the big Max/Hulu/Disney+ bundle deal, Hulu also offers its own bundle deal with Max if you just want to have those two services. Simply pick out your Hulu base plan, which starts at $9.99/month, and then add Max to your account for an additional $9.99/month with the ad-supported plan or $16.99/month for the ad-free plan.

What Is Streaming on Max?

Max brings together content from the old HBO Max service and Discovery+ under one roof. From Discovery, this includes programming from brands like HGTV, Food Network, TLC, Magnolia Network, and more. Some of the shows include Property Brothers, House Hunters, Fixer Upper, among others.

The service also maintains much of the content from HBO Max, including its slate of HBO Originals like The Last of Us, Euphoria, Succession, Barry, Curb Your Enthusiasm, White Lotus, House of the Dragon, and more. It also includes DC's slate of movies like Black Adam and The Batman, as well as other popular films like Dune: Part Two and Barbie. Plus, Max continues to house popular streaming series like Friends, Full House, and the Harry Potter movie collection.

In our 2023 review of Max, we gave it an 8/10, stating that, "Max stands as a great example of what a streaming service can offer, mixing eclectic, expansive programming with an easy-to-use platform and some truly unique things to keep subscribers hooked."
