By the way, you don't need an HTPC to do this, you can watch Hulu on a Roku or PS3 (with $30 software).

No one can say if this will work for you....we don't know your taste in tv nor your viewing habits. Many shows are not on Hulu or other sites, and often those that are are only for a limited time or only available after a certain amount of time.
I'm not sure I agree with that. If you're not using it as a DVR, it's just a computer that happens to use your TV as a monitor. Once you have it set up, it's just like any other computer in terms of software and usage.

As for the question, Netflix looks great. YouTube is watchable. I notice Hulu skipping a lot more on my big screen than I do when just watching it on my laptop. But it's still more than watchable.
