Hulu to start $10 per month premium subscription

I'm betting the cable companies have something to do with this.

I'll stick to the free last 5 episodes.

Why would I pay Hulu to watch something I already hired my satellite company to broadcast?

$10 isn't that much and if international users could get the same deal i would gladly pay $10 for hulu. At the moment i have being using vpn for it =(.

This is entirely different service than what satellite companies deliver. With hulu you can watch what they have right to show instead of just choose a channel and watch what your satellite company wants to broadcast.

I would rather download my tv, Or hook up my 92 sony vcr. Then sit and watch a full 10 minutes of commercials with my shows. Its a shame hulu is a good site. But corporate greed has sunk another good site.

Haven't watched Hulu for a long time. I'll continue to get my media free and commercial free. There is a reason why I hardly ever turn on the tv.

I still use my TV, but I record in advance and skip all the commercials...and I even have to do that on PBS!

If Hulu did the following, I would be happy to pay them $20 a month for it:
1.) Provide live streaming versions of all the channels, in HD and not some crummy, overcompressed HD...it should look good on a big TV.
2.) [optional] Provide a past-dvr, allowing users to watch anything that has been on any channel at any time during the last month (more than a month would be even better).
3.) I understand that some networks like Showtime or HBO would want to charge a lot extra for their programming, I don't blame you if you don't carry this, or if it costs a bit extra. However, normal channels that you would get in a typical HD cable package should all be there, and without extra fees. Failing this, charge a low monthly fee per channel, so that I can pick the few channels that I want, and not have to pay for about 100 channels that I will never even channelsurf through.

The whole reason I watch Hulu is the commercials are not as bad as TV. With 9 min worth of commercials, Im gonna probably switch back to channel surf and ovguide
