Uhh that's already well understood. HBO Go was internally written and not very good. They contracted MLB to write a replacement. HBO Go is on a ton of platforms. There wasn't enough time to writ HBO Now for all of them in time for Game of Thrones. So they started with Apple. It's already on several non-Apple devices with more coming. They will keep adding platforms and eventually phase HBO Go out. It's pretty straight forward.
