Hulu with live TV will now cost $90 monthly, too expensive? There’s a choice to get a $65 deal for three months. With Hulu there’s 95 channels of live TV available where you can also tune it to Disney+ and ESPN.
Since October 21, Hulu’s prices have went up dramatically for its current subscribers. But for new and returning subscribers, who hasn’t had an active subscription for a month can get Hulu with live TV $45 cheaper starting at $64.99 per month instead of the regular $90. However, this deal is it infinite the deal runs until November 5 at 6 PM EST.
Along with 95 channels of TV, which include unlimited DVR, this subscription also comes with ads from Hulu, Disney+, ESPN, and more. With a DVR, you could stream over 90 channels.
With ESPN being available through Hulu, this can be very efficient, especially with sports being active right now, such as football, basketball, and the MLB World Series, which takes place on October 24 and will be available for streaming.
Besides sports, other options include watching shows such as Only Murders in the Building and the King of the Hill reboot, with a wide range of shows available. Because Hulu is an app, it can be accessed on various streaming devices, including smartphones, TVs, laptops, and other gaming systems, such as the Nintendo Switch and PlayStation. The recording feature is especially useful if you’re not available to watch it live.
The rise of Hulu’s prices didn’t come out of nowhere. Other subscription services have also been increasing their prices, such as YouTube TV, Disney+ and Apple TV. As of now, YouTube TV costs $72.99, which is a discount. Despite the current discount, which lasts for three months, it will automatically renew at its full price, giving you just enough time to decide whether the price is worth it.
So far there has been people who aren’t really for it. One TikToker, wasn’t too pleased about the rising price.
“I’m assuming since a lot of people left. You decided to raise the price of your streaming network monthly price to 1199. Which means the people who decided to stay with you have to suffer by paying more? Make that make sense that’s insane to me,” the internet user said in the clip.
Some even suggested canceling their Hulu subscriptions to combat the issue.
“People should our kids their Hulu and Disney+ because they’ll get the idea once the stock start dropping that they’ll work with us,” one comment suggested
