Do you like Netflix or hulu better?

[colbtrist]

I have Netflix but I am considering Hulu but I'm not sure what the difference is really. Which one do you recommend?

I Have Netflix and Hulu. I like both, but I love Netflix because of the movies and I love to binge-watch Bob's Burgers

[missplaymate618]

We have Netflix, and I enjoy watching all the different movies on there, but I have heard Hulu has things Netflix doesn't

I love Netflix, but I tried Hulu and didn't like all the commercials when I pay to watch.

I tried Hulu a very, very long time ago but I thought it paled in comparison to Netflix also doesn't it have commercials which Netflix doesn't.  I have had Netflix for years and think it is the best of all of them.

I have Netflix. I hate the Hulu commercial interruptions. But that was a very long time. I still think they offer commercials still. It charges you about the same as Netflix but have commercials. I prefer Netflix.

Can I pick "none of the above"?  Never tried Hulu.  Did Netflix several years ago when it was still a DVD by mail service and they were just introducing the video streaming service.  It ended up being too expensive for our usage patterns.


Last summer we signed up for Amazon Prime.  It made the most sense for us.  We are frequent Amazon buyers (I average about $30-50 a month in Amazon gift cards as payment from some GPT sites and apps that don't pay out via PayPal).  So the free 2 day shipping that Prime provides along with the video content made it the best option.


I was able to binge watch some TV shows last year -- Sopranos and Downton Abbey, neither of which I had ever seen before.  There are plenty of other shows and movies available from Prime that I want to see and rarely have the time - so I'll never run out of content.  I also added an Amazon FireTV stick to turn one of our regular TVs into a smart TV. That adds access to iHeart Radio and TuneIn radio which allows me to listen to a few favorite out of town radio stations through the TV.


But I have to say that if not for the free shipping on Amazon purchases, I probably wouldn't have any streaming TV.

I have always liked Netflix because they have so much you can watch but I never cared too much for hulu because of the ads.

[dinkydawes]

I like both actually. Hulu seems to have the newer stuff.  And Netflix has the British mysteries/comedies I enjoy.

I do wish Netflix would stop removing some shows though, the streaming service I mean, they recently removed Mash/and Magnum.

[dogsleash]

for new shows hulu. for everything else netflix..

[ricdsm]

We use Netflix.  I guess it is OK.

[LenoraMinogue]

I like them both, but I think Netflix has more to offer. Hulu is another great service that continues to expand its options. Honestly, if you can afford it, I'd recommend both. Maybe you can get in on some kind of free trial first to see if it's worth it to switch for you. Good luck.

I have Netflix and I love it. They have great original content and movies. It's easy to catch up on my favorite programs when I get a change. I've thought about Hulu because I loved The Mindy Project when it was on Fox but haven't made the commitment.
