Hulu to Offer $12 Ad-Free Subscription, Look out Netflix
To keep that jingle out of your head.
Hulu has tons of great shows but the ADS, oh my gosh, THE ADS. I remember wanting to check out Fresh Off The Boat on Hulu but was constantly demoralized by women relentlessly trying to sell me these horrid floral pants. I also turn into a super impatient monster when waiting on the Jane the Virgin plot twists (they happen, like, every 5 minutes) so I’m not a huge fan of the ads. It’s a pretty common complaint about Hulu that despite paying for a subscription, you still can’t escape those advertisements.
Well, Hulu’s been listening, and while they’re not getting rid of the ads altogether, they will be introducing an ad-free subscription for a few more bucks. While the Hulu subscription is $7.99, the ad-free subscription, allegedly titled NOAH (No Ads Hulu), will be $12-14. It’s not a huge jump, so I can imagine Hulu users going for the upgrade.
With Netflix prices likely going up, does NOAH make Hulu a bit more attractive?
