Here. :mad: Really sucks. I like having one place to go to see the shows I miss and want to re-watch. I really don’t want to have to go to each network’s site, but I have a feeling that is what will eventually happen. Unless, Hulu goes to some kind of paid subscription format; which is another story.
Hulu will soon have little to no programming left to air as individual channels get their own sites up and running.
That really, really sucks. You’d think Comedy Central of all networks would “get” it.
As long as both shows are still available on Comedy Central’s site, what difference does it make?
Hulu’s going to stop being free sometime this year - maybe it’ll come back when you have to pay?
I think they’re still showing new shows for free, but members will be able to view shows from past seasons.
Because Hulu’s interface is far superior, you can subscribe to multiple shows, and you won’t be subjected to the same goddamn Axe commercial in EVERY break over two episodes.
Because I don’t want to have to go to every network’s website to watch their shows. I like one stop shopping.
Yeah, I agree Hulu’s strength was that it was one site, a uniform format, and you didn’t have to dig to find shows (unlike many network sites). Too bad it sounds like Comedy Central is partially jumping off the bandwagon. I hope no one else does.
Hulu’s not immune to repeating advertisements, and, at least at Comedy Central, adblock actually stops the ads. Most ads at Hulu will still work, and the few that get blocked will leave you with a screen for 30 seconds telling you to turn adblock off, but doing nothing to actually prevent its use.
As for keeping all your shows in one place, I think we’d be better off with an aggregating site that can provide access to any legal content on the net. (Ones that also include illegal content already exist). Your subscriptions and stuff would be handled there.
I’d say Boxee was doing it (albeit requiring special software), but the system requirements are higher than I think necessary (dual core/HD accelerated card). The requirements should be about the same as watching the shows themselves, which I can do (somewhat poorly) on my old P3 with 128MB RAM and a Radeon 7000, and quite comfortably on P4 with 256MB RAM and onboard Intel 845. (I don’t tend to get rid of old computers.)
But… but that’s how I watch Daily Show! Well christ!
