Hulu

When I was visiting my son in Ontario he was streaming a British Program he wanted to watch on his Macbook called "Doc Martin" from netflix. But then he noticed Netflix had some episodes but not others. So he watched some of the Doc Martin episodes on Hulu. Though I had heard of Hulu it was usually in passing and I just thought maybe it was another torrent site. But tonight I read that I believe it said in an article I read online that it was created by NBC, Disney and Fox as a new way to distribute content long term. And for now it has advertisements like Youtube.com does for many movies and things. I was amazed when I looked at the content of Hulu and realized it would be worth watching their content even if I had to watch the 30 second or under commercials because both their movie and tv content was outstanding and their pixel level was really great too. So I found a 1st run movie to watch tonight. What fun!

By the way if you are interested in Hulu I think next month some of the content is going to start being under a 10 dollar a month subscription fee to receive everything. However, since it has some really great content it is probably worth it.
