I think HBO is still putting out a lot of prestige TV (The Pitt, DTF St Louis, Hacks, Lanterns, HOTD, AKotSK, etc), but Apple is definitely putting out hit after hit after hit (Widow's Bay, Shrinking, Slow Horses, Margo's Got Money Troubles, etc).

Both are going to win big this weekend at the Emmys.

I feel like HBO has lost at least some of their magic. Still good, but a downturn. I was an early fan of Apple when they were doing only esoteric sci-fi that no one watched. I was surprised how small of the streaming marketshare it is, but not really.

Overall I'm definitely impressed with the content Apple has put out. I hesitate to say HBO has lost their magic, but I could see someone prefer Apple's offerings over HBO's, especially if we only look at recent and not the full backlog.
