Who doesn’t want to cut the cable TV cord to save money? Well, add it all up and streaming video can end up at about the same monthly price.

Michael Potuck on Hulu’s new price increase:

Hulu has announced today that its Live TV base plan will see a price hike going from $45/month to $55/month. While the company acknowledges that “price changes are never easy to stomach,” it believes the inc

reased price “better reflects the substantial value of Hulu + Live TV.”

Sure. Once you get on the train it’s difficult to get off if it’s still moving. Hulu’s price is more than cable TV was a decade or two ago.
