Epix is the latest company aiming to grab consumers who are opting out of traditional pay-TV subscriptions. These services that compete against Netflix seem to be launching all the time, such as Disney's upcoming Disney Plus service or the DC Universe service launched in 2018. Epix in particular seems positioned against HBO Now, since the service includes a movie catalog and access to Epix's channels.

In addition to Roku and Amazon Fire TV devices, Epix Now subscribers can stream content from the iOS and Android apps to any connected TV screen, download movies and shows for offline viewing, and access 4K Ultra HD streaming on supported Roku devices. Amazon Fire TV subscribers will have access to 4K content soon, Epix said.
