HBO Max has tripled the number of subscribers that HBO España (the service it effectively replaces) had in just a few weeks. The service has overtaken Disney+ (which as a 4.3 per cent penetration) being particularly popular among viewers aged 35-45 years,

Netflix is the market leader with a 20.7 per cent penetration, above all most popular among 18-24 years olds. Amazon Prime Video is second with a 8.7 per cent penetration and, like HBO Max, is very popular among 35-45 years olds.
