by the same token, if they were smart, they would give the USER the OPTION to either have ads with no subscription fee, or no ads with a subscription fee. CHOICE IS GOOD.

Requiring ads AND requiring a subscription fee is just an epic fail.]]>Mar 31st 2010 10:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/fuck thats the sort of thing that might knock hulu off its high horse]]>Mar 31st 2010 10:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/and give us more eps than just the last 5. ]]>Mar 31st 2010 10:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Ummm, how bout we just let the early iPad adopters pay ridiculous subscription fees for Hulu to subsidize our continued free use?]]>Mar 31st 2010 11:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/

Actually I don't pay for cable television BECAUSE it's absolutely ridiculously priced.

I MAYBE watch about 4 current shows. To make it worse, one of them is on HBO, and one of them is on Showtime. I'm not ok with spending $100 a month to watch these shows AND to have 18 minutes of commercials for every hour I watch.

Hulu CAN be profitable. I realize it's not even somewhat sustainable for customers to consume this media for free. I would be willing to "rent" tv episodes, if they were priced reasonably, and I'm willing to watch their ads, when it means that I don't have to pay.

The other side to this equation is that internet-based advertising can be MUCH MUCH more targeted than cable TV advertising, and thus, Hulu can charge a lot more for it.

They'll eventually figure everything out. But again, to answer your question, myself as well as a good number of my friends, refuse to pay for cable TV, because it is nothing but overpriced junk.]]>Apr 1st 2010 9:54AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Apr 1st 2010 10:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Mar 31st 2010 10:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Mar 31st 2010 10:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Android has Flash, skip the fees and view it through the website.]]>Mar 31st 2010 10:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Mar 31st 2010 10:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Mar 31st 2010 11:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Have fun paying for free services.]]>Mar 31st 2010 11:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/Why would they?

Have fun waiting for it to buffer....and freeze. Hulu doesn't run well on a 2ghz Atom processor or ULV intel processor with integrated graphics and 2gb RAM.... good luck on a mobile device!

Hulu app is the only way it's going to be usable on a mobile device the size of an ipad or netbook.

Wait? Why did I buy 47" 1080p HD TV? Why do i have to pay for it?

I hook up my laptop via HDMI, and watching Hulu. Email, and Social Networking? There is smartphone on my hands :)

So I think about take iPad out. Than it should be work! Hm....another 3G plan??Oh I can get WIFI from my job and school(or *Bucks).

I think iPad would be good who does not have smartphone or netbook.]]>Apr 1st 2010 12:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/31/nyt-hulu-planning-ipad-app-might-be-subscription-based/

I know why they don't now... they want people to watch on a real TV so all those advertisers pay the bill.
