Hulu Plus Arrives on Apple TV

Dallas Mahrt, Senior Software Developer at Hulu:

Hulu Plus arrives on Apple TV today.

To start watching Hulu Plus shows instantly, find “Hulu Plus” on the Apple TV home screen. If you are a Hulu Plus subscriber, simply enter your username and password to start streaming […]

If you don’t already have a Hulu Plus account, you can sign up at Hulu’s website or register via iTunes, in which you’ll be charged $7.99 as a monthly reoccurring subscription fee after a 1-week trial. While Hulu has limited advertising, the affordable monthly subscription gives cable cutters the option to watch current seasons of their favorite programs on demand and in HD from major networks such as ABC, FOX, and NBC. Philip Elmer-DeWitt of Fortune writes that Apple’s 30% cut likely delayed Hulu’s availability on the Apple TV, and that Hulu aims to provide a proper alternative as web users can now watch Hulu content for free from OS X Mountain Lion through AirPlay.
