You can say that again, I always hate hearing about new features because Canada is always cut out of the picture.]]>Jun 1st 2010 11:48PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/Jun 1st 2010 11:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/you do relize its not hulu nor microsoft stoping this comming to canada its our copyright laws that portect us see in canada its not totaly illgal to take shit off the webs and their is also a buntch of outher copyright laws that i wont get into but the basic diffrence is that the company is us basied and our copy right laws differ (and for the best) but its because of this they are slow if not never released here]]>Jun 1st 2010 11:55PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/
BTW, that's bull that you have to pay extra, unless they're taking out the ads or something. Even then, I rarely use it. I'd rather have Fancast so I can watch Comcast on-demand content too, along with everything Hulu has. ]]>Jun 1st 2010 11:59PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/jesster202... Canadian Cable (and sat) companys pay thousands, if not more, to US cable companys, and most of the shows are here either on a canadian network like CTV, A, etc or a network duplicated here like Discovery, CNN, HGTV, all offering the same shows on their websites...

The copyright crap may be true for some countries, but is sure as hell not for Canada :l]]>Jun 2nd 2010 12:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/Jun 2nd 2010 12:05AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/Jun 2nd 2010 12:14AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/
:( Sucks that its not coming to Canada.

You already know whats going to happen here. The people paying for XBox live will get this for 'free'. Xbox Live online gaming and other services are about to become free for everyone. You will only pay for extra features like Hulu, Netflix and other premium services they are adding in - ie if you want to pay the $50 ($35 on amazon) a year you get the extras, otherwise you can play online and do the basics for free.

Mark my word in a few days MS will announce XBox Live becoming free for everyone and premium services will be what costs money. They want to be competitive with Sony's internet plan even though it's halfa$$ed compared to Xbox Live.]]>Jun 2nd 2010 12:44AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/
The example below won't be for an xbox live bundle, but for the more common Hulu going paid:

Imagine being able to charge 10USD to each Canadian that wants your service, if they get it for all 12 months, that's 120USD. Just 1 million customers and that's 120million, 500k customers for 12 months and 2million customers for 6 months and that's still 120million. Not to mention the possibility (hopefully not) of ads. Also, in this example, there would still be content to sell because you are only serving the content to 1-2 million households and millions more want to see it (I don't know the actual viewing figures of Canada but I have looked at "24" in the UK and it just seemed ridiculous that one of the main exports paled in comparison to alternative options).

IMHO direct sales will always lead to more profitability if you have low costs of distribution, there's no reason to have a middle man, especially when it involves an exclusive deal. All we are doing is taking changing part of the exclusive deal away as they'll still have exclusive TV broadcasting rights. ]]>Jun 2nd 2010 12:51AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/

Keep the ads in there Hulu, I don't mind them - in fact I VASTLY prefer them to paying for shows I could see for free if I was at home on the couch instead of working.]]>Jun 2nd 2010 10:52AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/Jun 1st 2010 11:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/01/hulu-headed-to-a-xbox-360-dashboard-near-you/

Oh, this is totally irrelevant, but the Xbox 360 dashboard is crap. It looks nice and is organized well, but it is freaking slow. Things take ages to pop up and load. It's not acceptable.

I think Hulu need to realize how big they really are and start expanding. Right now Hulu are really limiting themselves to the PC (Personal Computer). They need to start making things for iPads and iPhones.
