Both of which are desktop solutions. Yes, they kinda work on a TV with mirroring and such but they don't have a good couch / remote experience like AppleTV or the various other systems. If my non-techie girlfriend can't figure it out easily, then it's not worth my time.
- hatcravat 14y agoHmmm... I think you're still missing the point, so let me try. The point was that for most TV shows the viewer is likely going to watch the entire series not just the current season. The GP's point was not that the back catalog is available for free in a clunky way, but that that most viewers won't care about old episodes. `
- jaredsohn 14y agoAgreed that if you want to be able to watch recent shows on non-desktop systems, Hulu+ is a good choice. (Added an edit to previous comment.) I just don't understand the statement "It complements NetFlix well in that regard too." in the context of your previous comment. Hulu+ complements Netflix in a different way than it complements iTunes. While Hulu+ offers a way to get a lot of iTunes content for a flat monthly rate (albeit with commercials), Hulu+'s advantage over Netflix is getting newer content.
