Hulu fans, Android users, gone soon are the Hulu-less days of your Android phone. Hulu CEO Jason Kilar has officially announced Hulu Plus, an invitation-only subscription service that will allow fans to watch content outside of Hulu.com.
Before you get excited, let me just say this — at the moment it’s only available for Samsung Blu-Ray player, select Samsung app-capable televisions, and iPhone/iPad. However, the following statement by Kilar has given us high hopes:
“This is just the first step in our mission to bring you TV wherever you are. We are already hard at work on porting Hulu Plus to other devices and platforms, with PlayStation 3 coming soon. But that’s a story for another day.”
The next step is to make the Hulu Plus Android app, duh. Considering the rise of Android phones and potential flurry of tablets and Google TV, Android is an obvious choice for being one of the next platforms to offer Hulu Plus.
If they’re smart, at least.
If you happen to own any of the devices and platforms that Hulu Plus is available, request your invite here.
