I think the big thing here is the way they do video. Hulu, has like 3 quality 
settings. And you set them. Atleast with the desktop app, The flash on the 
pages will try to autoselect. Netflix is much more in depth. It just picks what 
works, With the ability to go WAY down on bitrate. When I had a netflix 
account, It could pull as little as like 200-300 K and the video was about as 
good as what you got out of the first camera phones. But then I've seen it jump 
all the way up to like 8Mb/s to do "SD" quality. This was all on a PC, Which 
only does "SD" where the consoles and set top boxes will do HD. Don't want to 
even imagine what they can pull if its maxed out, And you have the capacity on 
hand. I'd guess something like 15-20Mb/s

Yea hulu is hungry. Netflix has a much better codec. I would love it
if WISPA could work some kind of deal with netflix so that we could
offer netflix for 'free' with a specific package. If they charge 8.99
I can see some kind of package deal along with one of the caching
server setups. With the Wii, PS3 and Xbox 360 support most of my users
would not even need a pc or other STB device. If my cost was in the 3
to 5$ range I know I would have to beat them off with a stick and
would naturally only be packaged with the correct accounts. Add in the
correct voip setup (still on the look out for a good rebrandable voip)
and it would be a good triple.
