the way hulu should be

Today I was thinking that I still need to catch up on the last episode of 24, but then remembered that if I watched it online, I’d have to deal with ads. Not that that’s any different than watching on TV, but still. So then I started wondering why Hulu hasn’t offered a “go pro” option for subscribers. Imagine this: you pay a small fee, say $5/month or something, and in return you don’t have to deal with ads on your shows. TV companies are happy because they are still getting revenue from the shows, thus the last few channels still refusing to use Hulu have more of an incentive to switch. Hell, they could even offer paying subscribers access to HBO programming or something. It’d be like cable and TiVo combined into one awesome, available-wherever-you-are package. Get on it, Hulu.
