“Sling TV is the first live standalone Internet TV service to
deliver Cinemax to an audience of cord-cutters and cord-nevers,”

days after we celebrated Sling TV’s one-year anniversary. Over the
past year, we’ve established a history of industry firsts, and the
addition of Cinemax is evidence of our intent to uphold this swift
innovative pace.”
Previously, Cinemax and its authenticated app-based offering,

cable packages.

available in Cinemax’s MAX GO app.
