As someone who pretty much only watches new stuff, it wouldn’t effect me much. However, I know at least one person that will not be pleased as she used it to watch Arrested Development, Dick Van Dyke, etc.

I don’t think there’s going to be a big change, but I could see them losing enough viewers to offset the gain they think they’ll make by charging and ending up coming out neutral.

I just wish CW was on the site so I didn’t have to use their horrible media player to watch Supernatural.

I would be tempted to pay…IF they add the ability to watch Hulu on my television through Boxee or my Blu-Ray player, like with NetFlix streaming.

$10 to watch only through a computer is ridiculous.

Hulu was great because it was free. Since they don’t seem to know already, they are going to learn very quickly how many other sites out there offer the same types of service for free. This reminds me of when Napster was taken down, bought out, brought back and they tried to charge people. Do you know anyone that still used Napster after that?

I am the person who watches everything off of Hulu. I have to work a lot during the time my favorite shows are on, so I go onto Hulu to catch up. What I like about Hulu is it’s a one stop shop for all your tv shows, it has some old movies, and there is a playlist you can customize. Is Hulu worth paying $10? NO. Like perviously said there’s only 5 newest episodes of a current series available, they don’t have a big range of movies which are all old movies and the streaming quality isn’t too great. It’s not worth it when I can add TiVo onto my cable and I can get netflicks anytime. So if Hulu started charging then they can consider me a lost customer.

Hulu’s selection of new shows sorta sucks. If you’re a fan of CBS or CW, you’re S.O.L. As mentioned above, the rest of the networks only keep a handful of new episodes online at a time.

On the flip-side, however, they’ve got a ton of older programs that you can’t see anywhere else, including stuff like season 3 of “Night Gallery,” which doesn’t seem to be heading to DVD any time soon. Of course, other exclusive programming includes such tacky dreck as “My Mother the Car,” “Nanny and the Professor,” “The Munsters Today” and “Bill and Ted’s Excellent Adventures, the animated series…”

If they were to offer even more older shows, I’d be willing to shell out $120 a year… but it seems like %99.9999 of stuff they’ve added in recent months is shows that are readily available on DVD, Japanimated crap I’ve never heard of, made-for-internet webisodes, and reality shows. I’m not paying $10 a month for crap I’ll never watch.

Bottom line is they’re gonna lose masses of visitors if they start charging to use the site.
