I'm going for greed
The strange thing is, one of the HBO big wigs boasts about how GOT is the most illegally downloaded show and seems to revel in it, but limits the number of legal ways available to view it via streaming. Thankfully they seem to have woken up to the modern way of accessing media.
With the Sky deal in place, I think it will be a while before we get an official HBO streaming service in the UK.
Now TV provides a half baked way of doing it, but the lack of permanent back season availability and delays in showing new HBO shows and seasons, makes it a poor substitute IMHO.
