Hulu price increases TWICE this year!

[JTLance]

I decided that the costs outweigh the advantages. No new services, even after they just CUT SERVICES....They raise prices?

Hello to alternatives!

"We’re reaching out to let you know that the price of your Hulu (No Ads) + Live TV plan will increase from $50.99/month to $60.99/month on Wednesday, December 18, 2019."

It was $40 this year....

I carry a TV which I connect to phone/laptop/tablet which have a library of videos which I can watch. Cost almost zip. May not work for you but it's an alternative.

We have tried Sling, Hulu a couple times, and I just signed up for Disney+. We have Netflix, and Amazon Prime (which we don't use for tv). That is all we pay for. We didn't mind Sling, kind of liked it, we just didn't watch it enough. We have 6 OTA channels, and that is usually enough with the other stuff.

I loved Directv, but hated the price increases. We stopped our service probably 4 years ago now.

Since the switch to DIGITAL and the "Multiplication" of the stations (Some have as many as 9 sub channels now) I find that I get more TV than I can keep track of for FREE (Well 25 bucks a year for the TV guide data)

Imagine what it will cost in 17 months, and however many days. 🙂

Hulu is in trouble IMO

Timmac is going to HATE this! Streaming going up in price and making satellite TV more and more competitive.
Here's the thing. You have to pay to rebroadcast the channels people actually want to watch. That cost just keeps going up. Surprise!

In the latest count, Hulu just squeaked by Sling's subscriber count with 2.70 million subs vs 2.69 million subs. With yet another Hulu price increase, I wonder how long it'll take Sling to retake the lead...

[fj12ryder]

Oh no, don't tell timmac. $61/month, and you have to have internet access too I imagine.

[way2roll]

had Sling for over a year, Still less than $30.00/mo

I'll stick with the ads and my antenna for OTA channels for $5.99.
