I know. But when you bring up the same show on TV using over-the-air/satellite/cable you see more ads.

- bjtitus 18y agoThen why don't they shut Hulu down?
- zhyder 18y ago1. Hulu is where they're testing the waters of Internet distribution; it's still a limited experiment. 2. They're hoping Hulu -because of its requirement of a computer- won't cannibalize their broadcast TV shows. In terms of their bottom line, Hulu > pirated shows on the Internet, but Hulu < TV.
