Hulu Plus ?

Hey again, an early posting from me for a change. It's actually late when I'm writing this but thanks to the magic of the internets it will be early when posted!

I just wanted to see if any of you had an opinion on this very very important matter. You see I currently subscribe to Dish Network. I worked there for a short time and got suckered into it. I didn't have pay TV for quite a while before and it wasn't too bad. But now after having it I like it. But I don't like paying the bill every month. It's not quite as bad as it would be with Comcast from what I see and hear but it's bad nonetheless. So I'm thinking about dropping it. The good thing about getting Dish as an employee was that I was not entered in any sort of contract with them.

I have been seeing on my XBox the big push for Hulu Plus in the past couple months and today I finally gave in and signed up for the 1 week free trial. It seems pretty good so far and you can't beat the price. It's only about $8 a month. Way way less than Dish. Do any of you have Hulu Plus? Do you find it comparable to regular pay TV? I haven't had a good chance to look through the shows that are offered. Do they have a wide selection of shows that aren't completely horrible?

I'll do some more checking around on the Hulu regarding programming offered during my one week trial period. The two shows I have watched so far have been good quality, at least in regards to picture and sound and no buffering problems. So that's a uh, plus. I think that Hulu Plus combined with Netflix streaming may suit all my tv viewing needs. Because as you know every stay at home dad watches loads and loads of tv.

Well, respond in the comments if you've tried it or know anyone who has and they've told you about their experiences, good or bad. And thank you for taking the time to respond to this most important of questions.
