Bloomberg: Hulu coming to PlayStation Network
According to a Bloomberg report, the Hulu service is on the way to PlayStation Network.
According to the report, the partnership could be announced “as soon as next week”. Their information comes from “two people with knowledge of the talks” who asked not to be identified.
It’ll be a pay service in which PlayStation Network users can subscribe to. It’ll give them “on-demand access to current prime-time television shows from NBC, Fox and ABC.”
Spokespersons for both Sony and Hulu declined to comment. Apparently, it’s set for $9.95 a month.
A Reuters report from earlier this month mentioned that the Hulu service would come to Microsoft’s Xbox LIVE service within “the next month or two”.
Hopefully we’ll hear more on this next week.

I actually forgot that there were rumors that this would be announced for the 360 during E3 but totally forgot about it. To hear that it could be coming to PSN first is pretty surprising.
Paying for Hulu is hardly a surprise but for $10 bucks a month I want current AND previous seasons, absolutely zero commercials and 720p. Otherwise they can keep it.
This could really put a dent in Netflix since Hulu offers movies too. I doubt that Hulu’s catalog is anywhere near the size of Netflix but Hulu can get new releases on the same day as Netflix it could certainly make the war more interesting.
Yea I agree. Hulu is not all that if they really want us to pay 10$ each month plus with this PlayStation Plus, I think it should be included because noting in PlayStation Plus seems usefull
