Hulu Plus Confirmed for Xbox Live

Hulu has just outlined their new "Plus" service that retails for $9.99 a month.

While they didn't specifically mention Xbox in their blog, Major Nelson took things a step further and confirmed the development of Hulu Plus for Xbox Live.

Microsoft is insisting the extra development time will be worth it: "We’re working hard on creating customized experience for Xbox LIVE members, which means that Hulu Plus will be coming to Xbox 360 in early 2011. We are taking the time to ensure that the Hulu Plus experience for Xbox 360 is the best on TV and like our other entertainment experiences it will not be a port, but rather a custom experience that leverages the Xbox LIVE community features."

Good to hear that it will be a streamlined service, though it'd be nice to see it hitting our dashboards sooner than next year.

What do you guys think of the extra subscription fee? Personally, I love the streaming Netflix so this might be an additional subscription that's worth the price. We'll have to see.
