Hulu Updates 'Hulu Plus' iOS App, Lowers Subscription Pricing
Hulu today released an updated version of its Hulu Plus [App Store] application for iOS devices, bringing several enhancements including a new split-screen player for the iPad version and improved management of subscriptions and queues.
What's new
- New split-screen player on iPad
- Enhanced queue and subscription management
- Improved playback performance
- New thumbnail viewer on iPad
- Miscellaneous bug fixes
I am happy to announce that today we are launching the Hulu Plus subscription service out of preview. With this launch, we are proud to offer our users the only subscription service with the full current season of hit TV shows like Glee, Modern Family, The Office, House, 30 Rock, Grey's Anatomy, and more, with minimal ad-load, across computers, TVs, mobile phones, and tablets.
With Hulu Plus officially launching today on Roku boxes and support for TiVo Premiere boxes coming in the near future, some have hoped that the service could make its way to the new Apple TV, but no such announcement has yet been made.Top Rated Comments

Still the price seems to high, when you can watch all the content free from there website on a computer.
You get access to more content than the normal Hulu.
IMHO, this is more proof that Hulu doesn't understand this market , but it's not like anyone has gotten it 100% correct either.
I think $4.99 is the winning price here. Still, having inline ads for a service I am paying to use, is unattractive (unless this has changed).

I think Netflix has it pretty good. Commercial-free content though less content than its DVD-based service.
The best part for me is moving from device to device. Like watching on my TV and then finishing a show on my iPhone.

How is this different than the $100/month cable subscriptions most people have?
Hulu Plus + :apple:tv 2 (+ AirPlay, if necessary) would = me immediately cancelling my satellite service. Fo'serious. Only thing I'd miss is The Walking Dead, and not even that really, because iTunes has that covered.
This could be big news indeed.

YES. If Hulu Plus supports AirPlay then I would certainly pay the monthly access fee. Cable companies can suck it.
