"I cancelled Hulu for the same reason."

Isn't Hulu pretty up-front about their commercials? What were you expecting vs. what you received?

Hulu was nice at first, until i realized that they couldn't handle slicing up a show to inject commercials to save their lives.

example:

  1. original scene change/comercial at 00:58
  2. show runs up until 01:00
  3. hulu then starts to buffer the commercial
  4. hulu then resumes show, but backs up to 00:55 showing the fade to black and some of the show again...
maybe they've gotten better, but this was an awful experience.
