…and Hulu will be bust in 2011.

This move seems very boneheaded. The reason Hulu is popular is because it’s quicker, easier to use, and of better quality than Bit Torrent. So Hulu is hugely profitable. It’s not like they’re going under. Tacking on a charge for the hell of it seems just like greed to me.

These executives just don’t seem to get that it’s the information age. People won’t pay for content anymore. They’ll pay for quality content, ease of use, good experience, etc., and there’s money to be made there. These guys (and Murdoch) seem to think the toothpaste can go back into the tube. Grr…
