Netflix has stirred up a lot of noise lately.
1. Netflix has enter the International market. You thought it is good, but end up you get a lousy collection of movies/TV shows. According to news paper reporting, you get only 10-15% of the US library. That is because there are many movies and TV shows has copyright, and Netflix simply cannot bring it to outside of US.
2. Netflix has vowed to stop non-US location to get their US movie library thru VPN. So, they are going to crack it down so that you, who is located in Singapore subscribe to watch “Singapore-version” of Netflix.
My friends asked me what am I watching nowadays.
I told them, I am watching the latest US TV series thru using the Hulu App on
1. Apple TV
2. Amazon Fire TV.
3. iPhone / iPad / iPad Pro
I love Hulu more than Netflix!
I used to hate Hulu.
I hated it so much that I refuse to watch anything on Hulu.
Because last time, to watch their show, you are forced to see their advertisement.
And oh boy, their advertisement are really long.
Just as you thought you have finished watching the advertisement, there are more advertisement in a show. About 4-5 advertisement.
Recently, they have come up a “No Commercials” version.
Paying another US$4.00 more. (US$11.99 per month instead of US$7.99 per month).
And after I have changed my subscription, I love Hulu.
With Hulu, you don’t need to download from Torrent anymore. It is the right way!
Hulu is competitor to Netflix.
Hulu is joint venture or joint investment from some major TV powerhouse in US. All these network work together on a single platform to give you the latest TV shows.
All shows are latest. You can’t get these from Netflix sometimes.
As it is somethings exclusive on a certain Network, such as Fox, ABC, etc.
Let me show you what I am watching, then you know why I love Hulu so much.
[Caution!!] You need a VPN to watch Hulu. If you subscribe to ViewQwest with Freedom VPN or other equivalent from other ISP, then, you are all set. Subscribing to Hulu should be easy, once you are in Geo Lock unlock environment, you can access to the Hulu sign up page. There, you simply key in your credit card (without even change the ZIP code, you can place your Singapore credit card there.
