Roku and TiVo Will Get Hulu Plus This Year

By  |  Wednesday, September 29, 2010 at 10:52 am

Good news for Roku and TiVo fans: Roku and TiVo Premiere boxes are getting Hulu’s Hulu Plus service later this Fall. For ten bucks a month, Plus subscribers will be able to get scads of new TV episodes and a sizable back catalog of old stuff, and Roku and TiVo will let them watch it all on their TVs.

It’s good news for Roku and TiVo, too, since Hulu Plus will be an attractive offering that won’t be available on Apple’s Apple TV. I’ll be curious to see which is a bigger hit: Hulu Plus’s all-you-can-eat TV shows with ads, or Apple’s 99-cent HD TV rentals.

    Of course, if you buy the Roku, you can get both Hulu+ and 99 cent TV show purchases, so you don't really have to choose.

    The days of my being willing to watch ads are over.
