Oh I see, so you're just being a Richard. Nothing new there, stay classy guy.
HBO, Showtime, Cinemax etc. are available to stream via GooglePlay. In addition if you're curious what movie studios have licensed with Google for movie rentals, streamable to GoogleTV, there's an article here: http://screencrush.com/paramount-google-play/
Does it really look so different from AppleTV's content? If so please point it out.
We're talking about Google Tv, not Google Play, or their cable network.

Sigh. . .
Mel, just point out the content differences. Geesh, there might be some significant ones but you're sure going out of your way to avoid just listing them.
Not yet noted by AI, Google has sold off the set-top business to Arris for $2.1 Billion in cash and $300M in stock, effectively totaling about $2.5B overall. That also allows Google a significant ownership stake in the company, perhaps useful at some point. At least Google thinks it might be.
