Hulu having ads isn't about the money they make. It's about keeping ads as normal in peoples minds. If Netflix and Hulu and any other online only vod dropped all ads then people might start to resent ads, and seem them as abnormal. Then people will watch less network and cable TV, which need ads.
- trhtrsh 13y agoMost of Netflix doesn't have ads.
- zwily 13y agoAre there any ads on Netflix? I can't think of any.
- johneth 13y agoThere's product placement in some programmes, for example the Netflix-produced House of Cards contains jarring product placement for the Playstation Vita.
- DanBC 13y agoThat was surprising and disappointing. I guess they need product placement, but some of the Playstation stuff was a bit heavy handed and ham fisted.
- Retric 13y agoThere is a lot of product placement in most TV shows this was just poorly done. If someone says a brand name or you see a logo long enough to read it than chances are that's product placement. EX: Someone's drinking a beer/soda I'd you see the label it's deliberate.

- Supermighty 13y agoThere are not ads on Netflix. I wasn't being clear enough. I meant that if there are video on demand services like Netflix without ads then people will see ads as a discomfort in vod services with ads, like Hulu.
