Hulu-the internet's leading company that provides an alternative to the Television, has recently announce Hulu +

Hulu + allows subscribers to stream current episodes from hot TV shows right to their Gaming Console, Mobile Device, Internet-Ready TV, and Internet-Ready Blu Ray Player.

Some of the current TV shows available are:

Now, every single one of the TV shows above ^ have won multiple awards for being amazing shows.

These are NOT the only shows that can be viewed though, some of the others include: 24, American Dad, Bones, Friday Night Lights, Lie to Me, Lost, and The Cleveland Show. These shows are still currently running, and are updated with the week's newest episodes.

Also available to watch are old TV shows. Some of the older TV shows that are available to watch are: The X-Files (every episode), Law & Order: SVU (all episodes), Buffy the Vampire Slayer (every episode), Highlander (every season) Among many other great TV shows.

To have access to Hulu +, a $10 per month fee is required, not too bad a price for an alternative to Cable or Satellite TV.

If you were wanting to use Hulu+ on your PS3 however, you need to have PSN+ which makes that $120 a year fee for just Hulu+ jump to $170 a year.

This information was found in the source code for Hulu +

Now, this may be a big bust for people who have purchased PSN+ thinking they would get Hulu + for free, sadly they are wrong.

Every other device that can steam Hulu + only needs to pay for Hulu +, with the exception of the Xbox 360, because no information, other than the fact that it will be released in early 2011 has been released.

This doesn't really have an effect on me, because I don't have PS3 and if I did, I would just stream it on my laptop either way. It doesn kinda suck for PS3 users who already purchases PSN+ just because they thought Hulu+ would be free for PSN+ users.

I couldn't care less about Hulu. I know where to find tv episodes, in HQ, for free anyways. The two new Futurama's that came out last thursday? Yeh, up in hours.

Congrats to XBL users that get it free though.

I find this funny though

So with no other information, this was presented and it's accepted that is the final say on the matter?


Oh, will they charge you anything extra to play BluRay through XBL? oh wait.......nevermind.

Do you mean $120 a year to $170 a year?

Kind of bogus you have to pay for PSN+ and Hulu+. I'll stick to streaming free on my laptop if that is the case.

interestingly enough if Hulu is planning on making a run for market share of netflix they're going to have to drop their price point.

At $170 per year, it's about $14.16 a month... compared to Netflix at $8.99. If the price point was closer to Netflix, I'd sign up

I've always thought about using netflix or something like this. If the pric is stays that high I might have to go for Netflix.
