[QUOTE="Nathan Drake, post: 4681446, member: 271209"] The problem with Hulu is this: if you don't pay for it, you get ads about three times a show, as well as before the show starts. The one before the show starts is generally only around 30 seconds, but lately, Hulu has bolstered the in-show ad breaks to around two minutes a piece, with some ads that seem to actually break the video and require a refresh. If you get Hulu Plus, the ads are ever so slightly reduced, but you're essentially paying $8 a month to access more content but the same number of ads. I don't know how common this is elsewhere, but with every other video service I've used as well as sites in general, if they ask for payment, there are no ads. When I can pay for a service like Netflix for $8 a month and just sacrifice seeing the latest episodes legally for the small handful of shows I'm interested in, it leaves little incentive for the internet savvy user to bother with a sub-par service like Hulu Plus. Not to mention that to use their app, you have to use Hulu Plus, which wouldn't be so bad if the app wasn't a steaming pile of crap. The overall rating it has received on the Google Play store is well deserved. If I have to pay $8 a month just to use the service on my mobile device of any sort, the least they could do is make an app that, I dunno, is decent? Comparing it to the likes of the Netflix app just shows that apparently those at Hulu didn't see a need to hire competent individuals to create their app. I'm sure for some people, Hulu Plus is a great investment because they wouldn't know where to find that content elsewhere. For everyone else, it's generally best to spare yourself the pain if you know your way around Google because even at a measly $8 a month, I'd be hard pressed to say that Hulu Plus is a worthwhile investment.

I rather enjoy a life of taking it easy. I haven't reached that life yet though.
