I'm almost done with these, I swear! Today I'm going to talk about Hulu, another service I haven't actually tried. I was going to lump it in with the video players I talked about last time, but then I realized that wouldn't be technically correct because Hulu doesn't require you to download anything, as far as I can ascertain. (It's still in private beta mode right now, so I'm not able to try it out.)
Hulu is a video site sponsored by NBC and Fox. It provides one place to get videos from both of those networks at the same time, as well as all the cable channels owned by the same parent companies. (USA, Sci-Fi, Bravo, E!, FX, Oxygen, Sundance, and Fuel are a few of the channels they list, but I've read there are a total of 15 in all.) The last 5 episodes of new shows are available, and they also have selected episodes of classic TV shows from those channels as well. In a move I don't quite understand, Hulu also sends their videos to other sites, including the AOL video site I talked about previously. So even though the Hulu site is still in beta and you can't get in, you can watch all their videos here as well. Seriously, I think I'm going to take a good long look at that list when I get home tonight!
