In May, HBO Max and Discovery Plus came together to form Max, but there may be more mergers in the future.

According to CNBC, Paramount Global is in discussions with Warner Bros. Discovery, the company that owns Max, about a possible merger between Max and Paramount Plus.

Both Max and Paramount+ include sports programming, with the former streaming the NBA and NHL, and the latter with rights to games from the NFL and UEFA. This could make it a compelling package for customers.

Add to that TV series such as House of the Dragon, The Last of Us, Knuckles and the Star Trek franchise, and this would be quite a formidable streaming platform.

We don’t yet know whether this would impact the subscription costs of Max, but there was a pricing shake-up when the Discovery+ library was added to the platform. It’s also unclear on if this merger would apply to countries outside of the US.

Currently, Max has nearly 100 million subscribers, while Paramount+ has 71 million subscribers. If the two services were to merge, they could seriously compete with Amazon Prime Video, Netflix and Disney Plus.

Max is also launching as a bundle with Disney+ and Hulu later this year.
