![]() ![]() I consider what they have given me so far worth the investment of 10-20 dollars. I’m not pleased with the current product I’ve been given, but like any other product from a company who has made me happy in the past, I’m willing to give them a little time(a month maybe), to fix the issue. I don’t care, for the most part, what my companies think/want/plan.Īre they offering me a product/service I want? YesĪre they charging me a fair price (Free/ad supported)? absolutelyĪre they offering me a product/service I want? ability to watch TV on my phone/PS3 Yes, tho I want more contentĪre they charging me a fair price? 10 dollars, yes. They have less content than Hulu.īut, I have been a huge fan of Hulu for a while. ![]() I was also underwhelmed with Hulu Plus’ offerings. Paying 10 bucks to be able to cancel my FiOS TV is a great deal to me. I’ve paid, because I wanted to get Hulu on my iPhone and PS3. I had the same experience as the customer who e-mailed them. You simply don’t disrupt legacy businesses by working within their guidelines.įiled Under: content providers, hulu plus, subscription, tv, video Hulu’s in such a difficult place because the company needs to keep other companies so happy that it can’t disrupt the businesses it needs to disrupt. Of course, this all comes back to the same thing we’ve said before. Unfortunately, due to stringent contract agreements on how content can be shared through certain devices, we are not able to have all of the content that everyone wants at this time. In the ideal world, we would absolutely love and want nothing more but to be able to get every popular show out there that users love, and acquire the legal rights to stream them across every fancy device imaginable at the price that everybody wants. Yes, it’s a bit of a paraphrase, but that’s certainly what’s implied here: Consumerist has an email that someone from Hulu sent to an unhappy Hulu Plus customer about the weak selection and the need for ads even though she had paid, and the letter basically admits that Hulu knows Hulu Plus sucks, but they’re limited by annoying contracts and they’re trying to change it. It seems that Hulu actually recognizes this, however. On the whole, if they are going to lock up content, I’m actually glad to see them keep most content for free, but it’s still not clear what additional value they’re offering to get people to pay up, and customers are noticing. In fact, new reports are showing that 88% of Hulu Plus content is available via regular Hulu. ![]() We were among many, many folks who were completely underwhelmed by Hulu’s subscription plan for Hulu Plus.
