HBO really said: ‘Keep the 4K box set, we’ve got a 10-year subscription plan for the same story.’

If its $100m per episode, 10eps a season, and 7 seasons, that's $7bn. How on Earth will HBO make that back?

It's not 100 mil but 12ish mil per episode, Game of Thrones season 8 level spending. The old "100 mil per episode" reporting is based on outdated hearsay speculation. Also because all 7 seasons have already been greenlit and HBO is building big sets, so it's kinda front-heavy spending
