How to stream Harry Potter online with a subscription
Home for HBO and Max Originals
Blockbuster film favourites like The Lord of the Rings, Harry Potter and more
4K and Dolby Atmost on Premium 
No free trial After years of switching services, the entire collection of Harry Potter flicks has finally found itself a permanent home on the new streaming service Max.
That means Binge users no longer have access to the Harry Potter films but conveniently, Foxtel subscribers get the cheapest Max plan for free (but you'll have to deal with some ad-breaks.)
Max is not only the new home for Warner Bros. films like Zack Snyder's Justice League, but also HBO heavyweights like The Last of Us, The White Lotus, The Penguin and more. Plans start at $11.99 per month for Basic with Ads and cost up to $21.99 per month for 4K Ultra High Definition on Max Premium.
The only Potterverse movie available on an alternative streaming on-demand service at the moment is Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore from 2022, which is currently available on Stan. Otherwise, the first and only season of Hogwarts Tournament of Houses is available for free on ABC iView (the one with Bluey.)

How does Max compare?
The world is a complicated place but never as complicated as it when you start getting into streaming. Which services have 4K? Which have subtitles? How much do they all cost and what do they offer? You can find yourself down a bit of a rabbit hole comparing Australian streaming services but if you just want the basics, take a look at how Max stacks up against the other streaming services available in Australia. /
