$10/month
Works with PS3, 360, Blu-ray players, wifi-TVs, iPhone, and iPad.

So much for Hulu not working on the iPad.

I'm wondering if it's actually worth $10 a month when Netflix is increasing their streaming library fast and has most of the shows already. Season pass, though, might be the dealbreaker, though.

I own them on DVD.

Hulu has many many more TV shows that are a lot more recent than Netflix does. You usually have to wait until the TV show's DVD for the season comes out well after the show has aired before you can watch it on Netflix. With Hulu, you can watch primetime shows the day after they aired in most cases.

Compression is my main concern, based on the quality of the current SD streams. I don't have 1080P, so 720 is just fine, as long as it's not compressed to hell.

Only if you pony up for PS Plus.

Ah a double dip. Not surprising though.

Playon FTW

I get a kick out of them not allowing you to watch Hulu on devices other than a computer unless you pay the 10 bucks per month though. PS3 and Iphone require you to have the 10 buck option to use those devices with this service. You would think they would still allow them to get basic Hulu for free on those devices. It still cracks me up that even though you pay for the monthly service you still get the ads.

Check the ratings on the iphone app. It is getting blasted.
