Hulu is planning a Spring launch of its live TV service and will likely be priced at $39.99 per month. The service will include access to Hulu’s on-demand content, Hulu Originals, live network broadcasts, and the broadcast networks’ on-demand content.
The new live TV service will also offer premium channel add-ons, starting with Showtime, which will cost $8.99 per month extra, and HBO will be available shortly after the service goes live. The live TV service will allow for a certain amount of recording and storage space in its base package but will not be a fully functional DVR. Although, Hulu is considering unlimited DVR with up to 200 hours of programming, as well as unlimited streaming for under $20 per month.
