Last Week Tomorrow Night with John OliverHow is it that HBO is still unable to get new episodes posted to Amazon the actual night they air? It can't be *that* hard.
There really doesn't seem to be any explanation other than that HBO is doing this intentionally. Practically every other show, even from HBO, shows up more or less when it airs. Yet here we are again in Season 8, more than 6 hours after airing the first episode, with no episode in sight on Amazon.

Episodes are not immediately availableI paid $19.99 for Season 8 and the Sunday episode wasn't available to view through at least Monday night. When I clicked to play the episode I did get an ad to pay an additional amount for HBO so I could watch it immediately. I'd have been better off watching the episode for free on YouTube. You only get half the episode but at least it is immediately available.
I wouldn't pay to watch a video 2 or 3 days after I pay for it. So I am disappointed that they set up their system the way they did. I won't be purchasing any future seasons.

Awesome showI love this show I watch it every week. The only issue I have is new shows don't get posted to Amazon when they come out. HBO waits a week to let these post.
