Why I like Hulu. Danu Send a noteboard - 29/10/2009 11:34:03 PM
So in essence, hulu is a slightly slower, slightly better quality, fully legal version of streaming. Most people don't mind two or three minutes of commercials in order to be legal. You can argue that streaming is better than hulu, but. . .well, you don't have much of a case. As to downloading, streaming has zero advantages, because it's the same thing. The only difference is that it's optimized for web delivery which is, in itself, not optimal. ;)


I don't mind it being slower, I do like the quality and that it is legal. I don't mind the few brief commercials (they give me the chance to go pee, don't you know)
I also like that I don't have to download which takes up space on my comp and which I'd have to go back and remove.

Most of the shows I watch are on Hulu, there are only a few that are not. Sooo...would I pay for the service? That would depend on the price. Personally I'd prefer more commercials. Who watches the commercials anyway?
