AT&T and Verizon are taking their wireless rivalry into streaming.

WarnerMedia plans to give its 10 million AT&T customers who already subscribe to HBO free access to HBO Max when it launches next spring, according to Reuters, citing an interview with WarnerMedia CEO John Stankey. HBO has about 35 million U.S. subscribers total between its pay-TV customers and HBO Now.

Earlier this week, Verizon said it would give away one year of Disney+ to all new and existing unlimited wireless customers, new Fios Home Internet and new 5G Home Internet customers.

A representative for WarnerMedia did not immediately respond to TheWrap’s request for comment.
