This makes perfeclty logical sense to me. I mean watching hulu content on your computer screen is one thing, but to watch it from a web enabled device on your t.v? Well now, that is entirely different. WTF

EDIT: netflix streaming on the box is the greatest thing to happen to the box all year. they even prioritize the box streams, it looks dvd perfect streamed from the box but when i stream through my laptop to the tv its a wee bit lower in quality. the only problem is they need more/better movies in the streaming section.

I knew something was wrong when I tried watching Hulu on my PS3.. Well, Hulu was never perfect for it. It always went very slow for me after each commercial..
