Max vs Netflix
Verdict: Netflix wins on library size and value with 2.5x more titles and a cheaper ad-supported plan (per recent CNET and Variety comparisons). Max remains stronger for prestige drama fans but trails in total hours watched and original output volume. The gap is clearest for households wanting variety over curated HBO content.
Winner: Netflix
Max: 7.5/10
