Goodby Hulu (and commercials), hello bittorrent
![]()
Once I started using Hulu on my boxee, my bittorrent addiction went away almost overnight. Instead of dealing with trackers, and downloading, and seeding, I could watch virtually whatever I wanted, whenever I wanted. The commercials for me were a small price to pay.
Now Hollywood has gone and shot themselves in the foot *again* and banned boxee, all because Hollywood feels that Hulu should strictly remain on the Desktop and not the TV screen. Instead of welcoming an army of downloaders back into the world of commercially-supported content, they have literally taken a page from RIAA's successful destruction of Napster (note massive sarcasm).
Thanks Hollywood, but no thanks. I suppose you leave me no choice but to return to commercial-free bittorrent downloads. Plus, now that I have *finally* discoverd TED, I can sit back and let the technology bring the shows to me as soon as they are available!
