    What are the benefits & drawbacks to each of these sites. We have a subscription to Hulu+ & Netflix & when I decided to cancel one of them, my daughter told me that Hulu+ offers current seasons & Netlfix offers the previous seasons. Is there any site that offers both plus movies?

    Yes it's called, streaming illegally. As soon as I found it I never went back to Netflix.

    personally, I prefer Netflix to Hulu... I believe you over pay with Hulu, you don't get what you get with Netflix.

    To fix the recent seasons issue, get a DVR

    I've got one of those but:
    1) we live in the boonies and only get DVRs that tape 2 shows at a time.
    2) sometimes you decide to start watching a series a few weeks after it's already started.
    3) going out of town more than a week before a new series starts means you can't schedule the DVR for a new series.

    Netflix actually has next day viewing of certain shows.

    When I had it (Canceled my Netflix for the moment) they showed new Spartacus episodes the next day.

    Cant speak for Hulu because I have never had it but Netflix its cheaper, I can tell you that.

    Overall though, Netflix has more content so I'd go with that one.

    LOL decided to re-up with Netflix just now.

    Went to check how things were going over there and really liked what they have on stock so I'm digging in right away.

    Thanks for reminding me about Netflix 2Blonde.

    They're similar but I like Netflix because it seems to have more content I want to watch. And the stuff I want to watch on Hulu is free anyway.

    But if you want to catch up on current shows, especially shows on NBC, ABC, and FOX, Hulu is the best way to go.

    Netflix disappointing ne at times, but for $7.99/mo. I really don't expect more than I get. Don't know about Hulu.

    Think with Netflix, is they only offer some stuff on mail/disk, and they still don't offer everything available. I'm not one who wants to correspond through the Postal Service for disks.

    The last time they really pissed me off, was when I put Seaquest in my queue. I watched the first episode or two, then the next episode they said was only available by disk. Never seen that with other shows. They were all either available or not via streaming.

    If anyone thinks there is something better than Netklix, I'd like to know too.

    That's true. They also have a lot of Korean TV shows for some reason. I think they have more Korean than American shows. What's up with that?

    Maybe it has something to do with lack of Korean shows on cable and satellite.

    My ex wife is Korean. She rents Korean DVD's to watch shows. There is a market for it, and maybe they realized it.

    Korean shows are really dramatic. I watch some.

    They play like an overlong movie.
