Hulu rocks, no contest.]]>May 27th 2010 8:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
Oh you want me to pay a subscription so you can advertise to me on the five most recent episodes of a show that i can watch? Throw in the full seasons of some _great_ shows like Dancing with Stars, Desperate Housewives, and Grey's Anatomy and I'm in!]]>May 27th 2010 9:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
I think, no I hope I'm scencing some sarcasm in your statement because this would be a god aweful if it came to fruition.]]>May 27th 2010 9:31PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
The main thing they want to promote with the subscription is having the shows up immediately after they air in your timezone vs 3 days later, and giving access to 5 shows instead of 2]]>May 27th 2010 9:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
This is not 1992, and I'm not going to do what THEY want, I'm the customer here not the other way around.]]>May 27th 2010 10:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
WTF ABC? ARE YOU IDIOTS OR WHAT?

HULU WORKS - DON'T MESS WITH WHAT WORKS!!!!!

HULU + ONLY 2 BACK EPISODES = DEAD HULU = NO ADVERTISING REVENUE AT ALL

God these guys are idiots.]]>May 27th 2010 10:05PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/I agree...I don't condone piracy, but the old bastards running these companies just do not understand the world we live in. It's like they WANT us to steal their stuff!

I'm not going to pay a subscription for LIMITED content, and also be forced to watch commercials!! These guys are hysterical!
Thanks for the laugh abc!]]>May 27th 2010 11:14PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/May 28th 2010 12:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/May 27th 2010 8:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
So now Hulu has 2 back episodes instead of what it does have, and once one of these morons does this then they all will. Except for CBS which doesn't even have a site like HULU. This is the company that owns CNET!!

What the hell is with these people. It's like they have never used the internet before. Someone needs to smack these jerks upside the head and explain to them what people want.

If any of you get this survey please use it to spit in their eye a little and try to wake them the hell up!]]>May 27th 2010 10:07PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
Seriously, there is too much to do in life to wait for a show to show up on TV. And if it's not on Hulu, well too bad]]>May 27th 2010 8:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/Excellent point! Video games and the Internet have already reduced my tv consumption dramatically. Now they want to worsen the experience, AND charge me money??

The one and only tv program I would ever pay for, is a Yankee game!
Ok....maybe Lost or BSG, but their over! :) ]]>May 27th 2010 11:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/May 27th 2010 11:20PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/May 27th 2010 8:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/

You have all of your friends connected and see what they like and others like you like. Tivo essentially does the same thing with it's suggestions on other recordings.]]>May 27th 2010 9:15PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
Just WOW!]]>May 27th 2010 10:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/May 27th 2010 9:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
I'm with you man. If they want to charge me there better not be any ads at all, also ABC's streaming service is really bad compared to Hulu and Fox with Fox probably being the best.]]>May 27th 2010 9:35PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
Best! not by a long shot. HULU has it right and it rarely has the issues that the FOX website or ABC website does.

Can't believe these guys are still jerking us around like this. ]]>May 27th 2010 10:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
So, ultimately, if you have 10 minutes of ads (for a 30 minute show) on cable, you'll watch 1.5 mins under the paid version, and 3.5 mins under the free version.]]>May 28th 2010 8:04AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/

We get ads EVERYWHERE now, and if I pay for the content I will not put up with Ads again EVER! Get a grip charge a normal rate, and get rid of the ads. Or I'll just Netflix it.]]>May 27th 2010 10:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/

That way there's no piracy, everyone is watching your shows, everyone is watching your shows with commercials, and now you know exactly how popular a show is because you can easily track the downloads.

How hard could that be? Everyone is already doing exactly that over on Pirate Bay, except they're not watching with commercials and they're not counting towards your ratings.]]>May 28th 2010 2:24AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/May 28th 2010 9:33AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/http://www.engadget.com/2010/05/27/abcs-subscription-video-plans-leaked-in-consumer-survey/
