In the words of Marvin the Martian:

Did you hear the earth-shattering kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth-shattering kaboom?

No? Well, perverbially, your computer just jumped a few levels in its ‘usefulness’ as a device for watching television without any new hardware. No, I’m not talking about fuzzy and blurry videos of youtube or the (waiting for them to download) pirated torrents of shows. I’m not even talking about the ‘on again’, ‘off again’ fun that was peekvid. I’m talking about network-backed, rich, nearly-new episodes of all your favorite shows and movies for…

wait for it…

FREE!

Quoted from USA Today:

Hulu, the online video joint venture of News Corp. (NWS) and General Electric’s (GE) NBC Universal, makes its public debut Wednesday with programming from Warner Bros., Lionsgate (LGF) and sports leagues.

At launch, Hulu will offer full-length episodes of more than 250 TV series, from current hits such as The Simpsons to older shows such as Buffy the Vampire Slayer. It also will offer 100 movies, including The Big Lebowski and Mulholland Drive.

Hulu, available at www.hulu.com, said it has signed licensing deals with the National Basketball Association and the National Hockey League.
