Even so, that cost caused me some sticker shock and I did not click to any of the remaining pages. At first, I thought it was a hack. That opening message could use some clarification.
I sometimes find HULU to be cumbersome to use. Is there anything better after giving up cable?

Hi there,
We are having the same problems with Hulu & now with Netflix šµ
Hulu, was always disconnecting and requesting for us to go thru the whole recovery mode..
We put up with this silly game since we had Hulu in our phones, tablets, and TVs.
However, little by little it kept creeping up in cost. When we first had Hulu it cost us $4.95 I think in 2007 or so. Last year they were asking for $15.95!
That is about 16 years of being a loyal customerā¦ However, we really didnāt use Hulu much because it seemed like they had mostly reruns of shows we loved to watch. In addition, Huluās constant login verification. So we drop them and have Not miss Hulu At All!!!
Netflix is next because they got rid of our tier price of $9.99 and now it is either $6.99 with commercials or $15.99 to have the same services we had at the $9.99 monthly level.
Our solution:
1- Our Amazon Membership comes with access to Prime Video. In Prime Video there are tons of options to watch live TV, download apps to watch shows, mostly with no ads.
2-YouTube Live again for $15.95, but the options are endless to Movies, TV shows, Live TV, Music, News, you name it, you will find it on this app. For less than any cable subscription anywhere.
3- All new Smart TVs have access to channels and apps, but we discovered the updates sometimes stop working on our 2016 LG OLED.
Easily fixed with an Amazon Cube.
What we are saying isā¦. There are TONS of options after Hulu & Netflix and We donāt have suffer their idiotic demands.
Hope you find a good fix for your specific needs.Have a wonderful day āŗļøāŗļø
