Hulu vs. Hulu Plus Live TV: Do You Really Need It?

To get or not to get: Hulu versus Hulu Plus? Do you even need it?

Well strictly speaking you don’t necessarily “need” TV but it sure is nice to be able to enjoy some good entertainment from our homes.

Hulu is an online television service that has been around for just under a decade.

When Hulu started out, it was called Fancast and you could watch replays of your favorite television shows online if you happened to miss the actual broadcast.

This service was available completely free until the middle of 2016 when Hulu switched to a paid subscription only service.

Their repertoire of programming has been expanded since then to include not just replays of your favorite TV shows but Hulu-bred originals and hit movies.

If all you are interested in is the ability to watch replays of your favorite shows or stay in on Friday nights to watch last year’s Oscar winning movies, you can get Hulu for $5.99 per month streaming on your phone, tablet or computer.

Not a bad deal at all.
