Hulu by May 24th?

" Access will cost $9.95 for which users will gain access to Hulu’s complete back catalogue of TV shows. You’ll still be able to watch five current TV show episodes for free, but older episodes will cost. "

This quote wins the most confusing sentences award. I think they are saying that the five most recent episodes are free. That is why they said "free" instead of "included". If you want more then the 9.95 applies.

Yeah I'm still confused. Could be that they changed their mind and decided to do a free or premium service for the iPad but all the original reports said they were going to charge just to use the service and still have commercials...which i personally believe would fail miserably.

Forget Hulu, the most shocking thing in that article was that somebody actually bought an Apple TV!

I personally would be willing to pay for the service, or be subjected to commercials. I could not however do both.

I can't wait until broadcast television dies.

Well based on the current state of what passes for entertainment ie: dancing with the stars etc. You won't have to wait for it's death too much longer.

That's the truth, sadly tho all of that will stay and probably get stronger of broadcast is replaced by online vod. It is cheap to produce and very profitable.

Already cut my ties, using Roku & hulu and OTA and if Hulu can do a decent stream they have my $10.

I also have playon and wouldn't consider spending a dime to watch back episodes of mostly old TV shows and obscure movies.

I wish they would have play on for iPad, or add support to air video server or something.

I think Netflix is a much better deal. For ten bucks you have access to a much better library IMO. Lost, 24, Heroes, Dexter. Their movie library needs some work but with 30k titles iirc you'll find a good bit of good. stuff. Ive got playon and I think the programming is stale though I haven't watched recently. BTW I have no complaints about the Netflix app though I don't use it much. Playback is quite good.

I use netflix ALL the time on my iPad and my PS3....streaming content is def the future of delivery...which is what i've been saying for years!

Well that's it. Heard way too much about netflix from you guys to resist. Started my free trial and I'm waiting for the ps3 disk. Once I get the 3G then I'll be set! Thanks guys...

Ps3 HD content is pretty unreal.

I can play NetFlix streams on my blu-ray player some of which are HD (720p most likely), add that I also get Blu-Ray delivered makes NetFlix a great deal. I'm Looking forward to April 30 so I can try out the NetFlix app; NetFlix streams looked great on my brother's iPad (lucky b@stard).
