• Netflix will have to keep hustling if it wants to be the next HBO. Time Warner, giving a rare peek into the premium channel’s results, said HBO added almost 2 million U.S. customers last year thanks to popular shows such as Game of Thrones and The Newsroom. That boosted total HBO subscribers to 114 million, while revenue rose 4 percent to $4.9 billion. Netflix had 44 million subscribers and $4.4 billion in revenue.
