The Cord Cutter Podcast #12: Hulu - Is It Worth The Price?

Welcome to the twelfth edition of The Cord Cutter Podcast! Well, everyone, it was about time. We've talked about Amazon Prime streaming. And, we've talked about Netflix (a lot). So, it was only natural that Mick and Adrienne would, eventually, talk about the last remaining major video streaming service. This week, our hosts will sit down with CinemaBlend Video Producer Jeff McCobb and finally discuss Hulu.

So, how do you Hulu? Are you only using it during the fall TV season to catch up on shows you miss at night? Do you use it to watch new movies or revisit favorite television shows from days gone by? Or, have you hopped on the service's new live TV package to replace your cable or satellite subscription? Today, we'll talk about all of Hulu's plan options, the original programming that's coming up for Hulu, as well as going over how we use the service and whether or not we think it's worth the price for cord cutters. Ready to dive in? Great! Read on to get the lowdown on this week's podcast and then listen for yourself above!
