Hulu testing $9.95 Subscription Services “ HULU PLUS”
Ok we knew this was comine, and i hope hulu does add some features from what we here at booreatwork think HULU need in its subscription model. LA times is reporting HUlU is about to test its subscription service starting May 24th for $9.95. Also there will be a HUlU app ( hopefully streaming too)
Under the proposal, Hulu would continue to provide for free the five most recent episodes of shows like Fox’s “Glee,” “ABC’s “Lost” or NBC’s “Saturday Night Live.” But viewers who want to see additional episodes would pay $9.95 a month to access a more comprehensive selection, called Hulu Plus, these people said.
I believe Hulu should adopted the netflix tiered services
