Hulu-TV

I had a feeling that they would begin charging a fee sometime. Looks like sometime next year, they'll no longer be free.
Let the wild rumpus start!

I guess it depends on how much they are charging. Those who use the service a lot, maybe willing to pay $5-$10 a month or a low price yearly price.

I do watch a few things on Hulu (mostly 30 Days), but I don't think I would pay for the service.

IDK.. I wouldn't pay.. There's too much good stuff for free online. I just can't see myself paying for it.

I pay for very little in the way of online entertainment. I wouldn't pay.

If they start charging, it'll be the beginning of the end for Hulu.

I already pay about $9 every month for Netflix with streaming. I also pay for satellite TV. Just how many more "entertainment bills" am I expected to pay?

While they do have some decent content, the quality is lacking in most cases, and does widely vary. I generally access Hulu through Boxee (running on a Linux PC connected to my TV.) Most shows look okay, but some just have very, very bad quality...

Considering there are free alternatives with better quality (*cough* BitTorrent *cough*) I think they're going to have a hard time getting people to pay.
