Hulu Not Dancing on the PS3′s Browser

06/27/2009 Written by Kyle P.

Hulu, the popular media streaming site, is not be functioning on PS3′s anymore. Just this morning, complaints began to arise from PS3 users trying to access Hulu’s library of content. Hulu seems to be blocking the PS3 browser.

Whether this blockage was initiated after the recent 2.80 firmware update it is still unclear. But it looks like some executive decisions were made on Hulu’s part whether PS3 owners should be able to view their content. As of right now though, this is a loss to both parties.

Thanks for the tip about watch-movies-links.net, I’ll check it out. Really though, whoever made the decision is either dumb, stands to gain financially from the decision or both.

I’ll bet Microsoft threw some money at them to block PS3 access.

Hulu, if it’s not broken, don’t fix it. Your company will make far more money from ad revenue. Your execs have to respect gamers, so don’t anger them with service disruptions that target the PS3 platform. If you study Google’s success, you’ll see just how powerful successful ad revenue is. So now, my faithful, fellow PS3 fans and I are waiting for the next great company to capitalize off your first big blunder.
I say we PS3 fans join together and form our own lucrative venture based on the premise of always providing high quality and always FREE internet TV for all loyal PS3 fans all around the world.
And we’ll show those Hulu execs that customer respect is the ONLY way of growing a successful company.
