Reminded of why you like comcast? What is there to like about this? I'd rather not pay to stream online TV. I'll watch shows occasionally there when I miss them on TV, but I'd much rather watch shows actually on TV. I wouldn't pay for hulu, that's for sure. I don't mind if they put more commercials, but don't charge for it.
**** that. I miss all my shows because I am studying every night and hulu is the only way I can keep up with them. **** Comcast
*arkoe notes DieHard Rocket and br0ken_shad0w have broken sarcasm detectors. I thought it was a huge step for these media conglomerates to embrace the internet. I will be sad but not surprised to see them take a step back. Half the time I caught stuff on Hulu due to Comcast having outtages, whether it was a single channel or the service altogether. Have U-verse now and am not looking back. I don't miss paying those Comcast bozos for services that were unreliable.
I've got a question about online videos. When I go to sites like Vimeo.com and watch their hd videos, they tend to stop, stutter and take forever to play. Is this simply a bandwidth issue? I'm on Comcast. RAM has no effect on this, right? I just did a speed test and it shows my download speed at 17244 kbps and my upload at 1767 kbps.
Broadcast television is free to begin with, so why is Comcast getting its panties in a bunch over NBC or Fox putting their shows onto Hulu.
My bad, I frequent the D&D board and the last big Comcast topic I posted in (one about the bandwidth cap) had a guy who was very pro-Comcast in it. So I can't tell if posters are serious or joking anymore. On the plus side, if there was a way to pay for 24/7 access to content *I* want rather than overpaying for channel packages and not even using half the damn channels, I'll be all over it. Of course, the companies would **** up that model too.
Not so easy - Hulu was created by ABC, NBC, and FOX themselves. That's what gives it access to such great content.
It has more do with getting paid for the content than the bandwidth. They want to get paid it is simple capitalism. You can already find a lot of stuff on surf the channel and netflix.
