What is Hulu ™?
Hulu ™ is a website running in early 2008, which is created for video streaming to users. Unlike many previous streaming video websites, which illegally used commercial features from television and video, Hulu ™ does everything legally, appropriately licensing content from copyright holders. It is financed through advertising that runs both in the side panels on the web and in short clips either at the beginning of the video or at regular intervals during viewing.
The two website owners are Fox Entertainment Group and NBC Universal, two of the largest television networks. This partnership allows Hulu ™ to distribute a large amount of popular programming that has helped him quickly get critical amounts and attract other providers to join him. Currently, Hulu ™ introduces programs and clips from the US, FX, Speed, E!, Oxygen, Bravo, PBS, G4 and Comedy Central. However, most popular Hulu ™ shows come from Fox Nebonbc.
Many older showsShe also began to see Hulu ™ release, including old situation comedies from 60 and 70 years. License stores allowed Hulu ™ to get the full seasons of these programs for high -quality distribution, so the site is immediately popular among older fans or retro television fans. At the same time, Hulu ™ maintains enough contemporary shows to become an obvious goal for contemporary television viewers.
TheHulu ™ model for contemporary shows is a tendency to show the current five episodes of this show so that they do not interfere too much for sale or repetition of DVDs. This is ideal for people who do not have a TV and want to maintain current shows, or for those who missed the last episode or two of their favorite show. Although there is a large amount of space for greater depth to the ™ archives, it carries the fact that it is owned and operation by two main networks, limits the amount of competition thatHe is willing to give traditional broadcasts, which in turn helps him attract and maintain other networks.
For advertising, Hulu ™ is a predominantly modified commercial model. At periodic intervals during the show, usually three or four times, short fifteen second advertising spots are played. This advertising site is generally for the same product or service and can sometimes be the same advertising repeated several times. Hulu ™ also broadcasts many ads for non -profit organizations. Hulu ™ occasionally offers the user an alternative to this commercial model, where he can choose to watch a little longer, usually between one and two minutes, mini-video advertising or to issue a traditional commercial route.
For some programs, usually those that were retired from the air, Hulu ™ will offer the entire archive show. "Studio 60on The Sunset Strip" is a good example, with the whole program available online. Other programs can have available every season, but not the entire current season. Others still have the whole actUal season, but none of the past seasons.
