HBO intros are my favorite things on all of television, I skip the episodes to watch the intros again
I find it fascinating that Netflix and Amazon give the user-friendly ability to skip series intros, and HBO won’t because it thinks the intros are important and doesn’t care what you want.

Could partially be because Amazon/Netflix tend to release all episodes at once, while HBO releases shows on a weekly schedule, meaning that Amazon/Netflix users are more likely to binge and get tired of watching the intro 3-4 times in a day.

To be fair it might also be because their technology sucks and hasn’t caught up yet

Artists put the intros (and credits!) there for a reason. Apple TV (at least the original one) acknowledged that and doesn't eat the credits, even in Netflix. Netflix/Amazon and cheap TV channels are distributors; they don't care about the art.

The Westworld and Game of Thrones intros are my absolute favorites. Opening as art vs perfunctory credits and b-roll.

Amazon is build predominantly on what the consumer wants... HBO should take note....
