    Last May, Hulu announced plans to start streaming live TV, much like Dish's Sling TV and Sony's PlayStation Vue services -- but the company hasn't offered up many details on how this would all tie into the existing Hulu on-demand service. That's changing today, as Hulu is now showing off an entirely redesigned user experience that will debut alongside its live TV service later this year. Surprisingly enough, even though one service is now managing two different video functions, everything looks a lot more streamlined compared to the current Hulu experience. Hulu's senior vice president of experience, Ben Smith, told Engadget that the goal with the redesign was to focus on getting viewers the specific show they were looking for, regardless of whether it's on live TV or in Hulu's on-demand library.
