Hulu is add a subcription they have this for the PC as well, you pay to watch older shows, new shows will stay free. btw this is not fail, netflix does it too. Xbox live is 100% worth the money

Paying to get on the internet - Not MS
Paying for Xbox Live - MS
Paying to watch shows and movies on Hulu - Not MS
I was blowned away when I found out that HULU was taken off Ps3 cuz M$ paid for it. I mean I understand that you pay for services/games/content to favor your system but to take it away from another? thats just wrong. Wat if M$ paid for Facebook and Twitter and then block it for the PS3? that would have ended wellRTUUMMWhen did MS pay for Hulu to be blocked on the PS3? :?

I think its worth it. microsoft saw the future, Hulu, youtube, facebook, have seen it to, they need to charge for something, paying for live is just like paying for hulu, you are paying to watch shows older than 5 eposides I believe, which is insane, but thats what happens when you get a large number of people using ur services

That's what I do and it works great!!!

Always wonder why people cant just get cable. I mean your paying for internet why not $30 cable?TrapMuzik92
Being able to watch a tv show you miss, or whenever you feel like it is a benefit of Hulu.
It'd be more like why would you use Hulu if you had a DVR or Tivo, but if you just have standard Cable (as I do) Hulu is beneficial.
yeah, it's not like sony is comming up with their own gold membersh....oh wait :roll:That's how MS rolls ;)

uber fail since if 360 had a browser and Hulu didn't intentionally block devices (ps3) then it would already have had this. I think it would be crap for MS to announce this and then claim ownage over it after it was already available before it was blocked on ps3.

So your mad that they are adding features to an already great service or are you just having a hard time realizing that you get way more with gold than just hulu and other apps?Yup, having to pay for xbox live in general is pretty lame. They can add all the services that I already get for free on my pc that they want, it's not going to change that.

Thats old. From what I remember, Hulu wants to charge to view old episodes but the NEW ones will remain free.The rumor is that Hulu plans to charge everyone not just 360 users. They just plan to announce it at E3.
Fizzman
no. Hulu will remain free on PC. Free newer episodes, if one wants to see old ones, will have to pay up.You're probably gonna have to pay for hulu on the PC as well.

you will have to pay to get the same features you will get on the 360 and ipad
everyone just make time to watch tv or get a recorded. or use a pirated site $120 is to much a year to watch tv eposides

I'm watching hulu right now on my computer for free, I'm not mad about anything. If you like wasting money, then by all means go for it.

hulu is free now, but soon, not all of hulu will be free
[QUOTE="Mestitia"][QUOTE="ohthemanatee"] yeah, it's not like sony is comming up with their own gold membersh....oh wait :roll:genarollCan you play online for free? Pwned! Charging for optional extras =/= charging for basic out of the box online play. You can't play online for free you need an isp.Pwned.No specific sentences =/= stupid comebacks :)
You need an isp for anything to do with online, it is a moot point. You need an isp to play on live as well, but that isn't all you need. You pay twice to play on live, and it's still a crappy p2p network at that, which isn't worth paying for no matter how you spin it.

Then soon, nobody will use hulu anymore. The only reason people use it now is because it's entirely ad supported.

yes, I do, sadly i live and canada and cant get it, but I would def pay for netflix. but I dont see why its a problem, because its not like you have to pay twice to use it on the PC
I went to find more info to post and found something unrelated,but is this still true?

Microsoft is milking you for basic online play while Sony will still allow you to play online for free with some extra features, and you can not spin it in MS's favor in any way. And if you want to throw in as some as silly like the Internet connect itself, why don't we just add house bills, electricity, and food on top of that?
