I loved Hulu when it first came out because, guess what, no commercials. Then they added commercials, unless you paid for it, then you'd just get less commercials or something. I haven't been on that site in a year because of this.
Now people are harping on Netflix for the price hike. It was eleven freakin dollars to get one dvd at a time and stream everything they had. Now it's a "shocking" 60% hike up to a staggering $16.
Really? That horrible huh?
Can you think of any other bill that's only $16 a month? Digital HD Cable with internet is something like $120 a month for most people. I pay $50 just for internet from Cox Cable alone, which again creeps up a couple dollars every year.
People complain that there's nothing on the streaming services of Netflix. But how many times have you heard the same about television programming?
So give Netflix a break. Otherwise they'll have to start feeding us commercials somehow.
If that happens, I'm going off the grid, for reals.

We kicked Cox to the curb a while back too. We stream Netflix and Hulu+ via a Roku box. Works great and we pocket $90 a month after paying Hulu+ and Netflix. Even Hulu+ has commercials, although limited. You'll never hear me complain about paying $16 a month when we used to pay $90+ for basic Cox service.
Went from $160 last year with dvr cox cable to 105 earlier this year for tv and net to 55 for net only now. Using netflix and local antenna. Works for us.
