Hulu’s a pretty cool service. I’ve been using it off and on for a while now, through Hotspot Shield and it’s been a great, new alternative to the old model of watching television. We all want to watch what we want when we want, and finally, it seemed that television broadcasters were getting this.

Only thing that sucks about it is their restriction to the US. Which is why I’ve had to use workarounds like Hotspot Shield. Well, rather than trying to open things up to Canada and other markets, they’ve decided to go old skool and lock things down tighter. Why?

Seriously people, the Intertubes is a global thing. Figure out your damn licensing restrictions so we can all get on Hulu and turn it into the successful thing that can save your archaic business. If I can watch The Celebrity Apprentice on cable on my television set, why can’t I watch on the Net? Seriously?!
