Forums - Microsoft - Whats the point Hulu?!?

So I have Hulu plus for my 360 now (free 1 month trial but I will probably end up paying for it cause its pretty good)

But one thing kind of aggrivated me...

Why web only Hulu?!? Why? I don't understand the need to force me to watch something on the web when I'm paying (or will be) for your premium service! >_<

I never got what the differnce was between hulu and vudu.  (I use vudu and its free for PS3 atleast.)

I've never heard of vudu TBH.



I think the real question is why are you watching Kitchen Nightmares?



Sig thanks to Saber! :D 

Is Hulu running ok for you?  Mine stops constantly to buffer, netflix works fine so I had just figured Hulu had too many new users to handle. 

OT:  I am really suprised by the web only option!

Lol I've never watched one of their shows before and I've heard they're pretty good so I went to look at it and only the newest season is available to watch on my Xbox.

Yeah it only quit out of the TV shows I was watching twice for whatever reason but I just loaded them back up...and I've watched about 8 shows so far all in perfect HD with only those 2 said glitches above.

But I have to mention I have 15 meg internet so that may be the reason.



You never heard of Vudu?? Its becoming very popular atleast where i am from. You should give it a try its like netflix and hulu combined.  And i meant to say on my last comment that vudu is free for PS plus subscribers.  :)

Do they have pretty much all the new releases for movies? Cause thats the only thing im missing right now since Netflix doesn't add very many new movies and Hulu covers pretty much all TV shows that I want..

vudu is free for ps subscribers? dang im gonna have to download it when psn comes back

 

and btw, web only is because of licensing issues, and also, hulu is free on the web, ive never come across something that i couldnt watch when i was visiting from my computer and im not paying for it
