I was just wondering who has discovered Hulu? I have been indulging in it quite a bit, lately. It is not a huge library, yet, but it is large enough to at least be able to find a few things. I have been discovering some things that I have missed, since I have been working evenings for the past several years. They have a fair variety with a little bit of everything.

Here is one for Tawm:

Nice find! Watching it now.

I have used HULU for awhile. First thing that brought me to it was "The Crow: Stairway to Heaven" tv show. I caught the first few, then missed the rest for reasons I can't remember. So I watched it all on HULU then ordered the DVDs.

Ya know it's interesting... As much as I love Wolves and all... watching this show... it mentions reintroducing wolves after 60 years to this environment... where wolves have not been (because of being hunted down or whatever)... suddenly, the typical prey for wolf, who has not had to worry about wolves for 60 years, is dealing with a brand new threat. Because if you think of the life span of an elk (which according to this site) is roughly 14 to 20 years. That's three to possibly four generations of elk that have not been "trained" to be aware of the threat of wolves. It's almost unfair to the elk (and other such prey, I just picked elk because that's what the video first shows).
Not that this is really much of a discussion for the Hulu thread - just sharing my first thoughts as I was watching the video. Carry on with the greatness of Hulu! :)

I've heard of Hulu, but it's not very useful for me. The site won't stream anything to anyone outside the United States. It even states as much when trying to view a video.

Probably some copyright laws. There's some videos on Youtube that will not work outside of the United States, for the same reason.

Can you try a proxy from within the US? A free one might not like the bandwidth you would be using, though.

Wow, they really changed their site around! If I recall, it was nothing but very small links that you had to Ctrl+F to find what you're looking for. Never really used it though.
