so i work in broadcast tv and watch quite a bit of television on a daily basis (8+hrs), so when i heard about hulu.com, i was intrigued.
what is hulu.com?
basically, hulu is a joint venture between Fox and Universal (NBC) studios. they upload full-length tv shows (and some full length feature films) to the Internets with limited commercial interruption.
you might ask: why not visit station's websites?
well, most websites (NBC.com, ABC.com, etc etc) only put up a limited amount of episodes on the web. hulu.com has an extensive collection of series and seasons. of course only universal and fox studios are represented. but its a start!
Much like YouTube and Daily Motion, you can also embed video clips through HTML or even email clips through the website.
Hulu is in private beta testing. it took me over a month to gain an access code. i highly recommend signing up! I was able to watch the entire first season of Friday Night Lights online.
I feel like i should mention that I support the WGA strike, especially since I'm promoting internet broadcasting of television material that they are seeking compensation for. I think it's only fair that ANYONE receive compensation for their work!
