Interesting... Not sure if I'd bite, but combining the cost of Netflix and the higher Hulu+, still beats the price of cable in my area by a long shot. Considering that they each have material that the other service doesn't, it's still a deal (if you want to replace your cable that is).
It is all about the programming; most of the shows that are on cable are not on hulu at all...if they don't expand their selection of shows (as well as their selection of episodes for each show), then it will be very hard to justify. Now, if they make it so that it is like having some kind of super-DVR that gets every show from every channel, then I would happily pay $20 a month for it; I would pay $40 a month for it if it had good quality and live streaming of sports, racing, and other events that are meant to be watched live.
