AT&T Venture Smells of Hulu
Telephone company AT&T, parent of TV provider U-Verse, launched an online destination Thursday that looks a lot like Hulu.
In fact, Hulu—the joint venture of Disney, Fox and NBC Universal—provides much of the content to the new venture, dubbed AT&T Entertainment. CBS Interactive and dozens more also provide content.
The site, at www.entertainment.att.net, features ad-supported movies and TV shows from ABC, CBS, NBC, Bravo, Oxygen, Syfy, the CW, USA Network and others.
Users don’t need to be U-verse subscribers to access the content, which is free, though some of it—like a two-minute scene from Universal’s 1985 film The Breakfast Club—requires users to register before viewing.
