Hulu Finally Unveils Hulu Plus

Finally! After weeks of speculation, Hulu has finally announced its premium content offering, Hulu Plus. As expected, the service will cost $9.95, and will provide access to a deeper library of content than is currently available. It will also feature an iPhone and iPad app, and will let users watch programming on their television sets through videogame consoles like the Microsoft Xbox 360 and Sony Playstation 3. It will also be built into select Sony and Samsung television sets.

It also features full 720p high-definition video streaming (compared to 420p for regular users).

Hulu CEO Jason Kilar unveiled the service on the Hulu blog:

Hulu Plus is not a replacement for Hulu.com.
