I was interested to see what the real-world benefit for me would be in buying the $7.99 monthly subscription after the week-long trial, compared to using the free Hulu on a PC hooked-up to my television. I searched for some shows I commonly watch on the free Hulu website. Shows from recent "In Plain Sight" seasons were available on free Hulu, but not on paid Hulu Plus. Recent "Cougar Town" episodes were available on paid Hulu Plus, but not on free Hulu.
Hulu Plus, an app from Hulu, is available for free at Google (Nasdaq: GOOG) Play, but the service requires a US$7.99/month subscription.
