Subscription-Based 'Hulu Plus' Is Now Official

itwbennett writes "After months of rumors, Hulu officially announced its $9.99/month Hulu Plus service. Invites will soon start rolling out in weekly batches. So what will you get for that $9.99? 'Full access to a bunch of current shows (Hulu lists 40 but adds 'and more' to that list) as well as complete series collections of some older titles such as The X-Files, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, and the wonderful and mostly-ignored Eli Stone,' writes blogger Peter Smith. 'HD content sources will be streamed at 720P but Hulu mentions that the service is ad-supported.'"

    So, just like with cable TV, I would pay to watch TV with ads? No thanks. Netflix (for available shows) and Demonoid (for shows not available on DVD) are serving me quite well, thank you.
