What was that one that flopped immediately? It was an entirely mobile based app with exclusive content that was only minutes long (because people dont have time to watch proper shows on their phones)

Quibi had a ton of money behind it and immediately failed, it was shut down less than a year after launch I think

There used to be a DC Comics focused one

It turned into DC Universe Infinite and is just a comic reading app now. But originally it was DC Universe, and it focused more on movies and shows. When HBO MAX launched, it immediately died and every single show on there got moved to HBO MAX

PlayStation Vue was a Live TV streaming service that Sony ran for about 5 years in the PS4 era. They folded it after the PS5 came out.

Of course they did. I don't care where they went. I just hate Peacock because the UI is the worst I use (It was HBO Max but they greatly improved), and also they're taking next day streaming on NBC shows from Hulu.

NOTE: I'm referring to forced autoplay and previews, both of which are garbage features. Fortunately, HBO Max allowed us to disable them on most apps (not Android or PC for some reason).

It was actually pretty solid, I used it for about 2 years to watch Bundesliga games

I would've given it a look (not via Playstation) if it hadn't died before I had the chance.
