Nov 17 Hulu Plus Drops Price to $7.99/month
I received an email from Hulu informing me of the price cut. In addition to the reduction they are offering a free one week trial of the service. They are also initiating a referral program where each person you refer and you will get two weeks free. Use this link (http://hulu.com/r/jbmfSw) and we both get two free weeks!
The following is the email I received from Hulu:
Hi Ara,
Thanks for being a subscriber to Hulu Plus during our preview. We've been hard at work refining our existing applications, expanding the device coverage, and extending our content lineup. We're excited to announce that today, Hulu Plus is officially launching out of preview to anyone in the U.S. for just $7.99/month.
Since we're now offering Hulu Plus at a lower price than during the preview, your subscription fee has been lowered to $7.99/month, and on your next billing cycle, we'll also automatically credit your account with $2 for each month you've been a subscriber. In addition, we're now offering a 1-week free trial for all new subscribers, so we'll be issuing you an additional $2 credit since the free trial wasn't in place during the preview.
We'd also like to offer you the chance to earn more free time on Hulu Plus by helping us spread the word about the service. For each friend who uses your referral to join Hulu Plus, we'll give you two additional weeks for free, up to 20 weeks total. Each of your referrals will also receive two weeks free on their first month's subscription. For more details on the program and to invite your friends, please visit http://www.hulu.com/profile/referrals.
Since the Hulu Plus preview began, we've added more TV shows and extended our device coverage.

Thanks for the post. I signed up using your referral link. Perfect timing for my upcoming trip to use with my new iPad.
Netflix I'll pay for. Hulu I will NOT pay for.
