"...might be the final push viewers need to dump their TV subscriptions altogether." I recently dumped DirecTV. I have a Mac Mini running Plex. The latter nicely integrates seamlessly with Hulu, TheDailyShow.com, TheColbertReport.com and Netflix (watch instantly), and to round out my TV watching experience I download the rest from P2P (eztv.it, currently down with "hardware problems"). I've been giving preference to Hulu, TDS and TCR over P2P so that the content providers know I'm watching. I also want Hulu to make some money on the ads, which aren't too bad. What I don't understand: from the point of view of content providers, Hulu should be preferred, because, after all, I can't skip commercials. TiVo, my old DirecTV DVR and other means all allow me to skip commercials. They should embrace Hulu. It will save their asses.
