Cheapest way to access HBO GO?

Hello world and all who inhabit it,

My father has recently discovered HBO GO so he's attempting to rewatch the Wire. Problem is that the PC monitor is too small so he is looking to watch on the family room TV. I would go for a Roku but Comcast doesn't let subscribers use it on Rokus. Cheaper is better. Thanks

Samsung Wifi BluRay player.

Then just download the app:

Turns out Comcast doesn't support HBO GO on anything other than iOS, Android, PC and Xbox Live. *sigh*

Do they happen to have a Samsung TV?

Try hooking the PC up to the TV then set your resolution to match the TV's.

Btw, the Comcast app seems to have all the HBO stuff built in. That brings us back to Android, though, I guess.

edit: whoops, apparently you can't HDMI from the app
