Is now really the time to be doing this? I guess they are hoping people will be desperate for stuff they haven’t already watched when the programming dries up from the strikes.

Also, almost $20 a month for Hulu? Get real.

    Yea for sure, however if they went from a user paying from $5 into $10, and then later $10 to now $20, now they just need 1 user for the price of many.

    Also, despite a short-term wave of rage-drops from their service, they know they’ll eventually get a new wave of users later on who never knew anything different and the cycle continues.

    Of course they do this incrementally so they don’t lose out too much of their base, but all of the services are going up. It’s going to continue to happen and probably quicker than some people realize. It’s happening everywhere
