HBO and AMC have different business models.
HBO charges more and has no commercials. It's no benefit to them to have more episodes once they've pulled in the subscribers. In fact, their better off spending less money making fewer episodes.
AMC has commercials but lower subscription fees. They have an incentive to squeeze out as many episodes as they can while still keeping ratings high.
