Which is better?

Horus · Feb 27, 2011, 02:37 PM

Hello everyone, I didn't know where to post this, I hope it belongs here...

Currently I'm considering subscribing to a stream service (Hulu+, Netflix), but i don't know which is better for my needs:

-TV shows and series (Two and a Half men, The Big Bang Theory, The Simpsons, Familiy Guy, etc)
-BTW, I don't tend to watch a lot of movies.

I like Netflix. You should do streaming + DVD.

Do they have a good catalog of series?
I have used their free month, but it seems that Netflix is more Movie oriented though.

Netflix has a lot of tv shows. They even have a lot of cartoons from the 90's.

Isn't hulu better for current tv shows while netflix has more movies and older series? I don't think netflix gets shows until they are out on DVD, too.

It almost seems to me that their streaming options are more TV oriented - but that could be because I'm usually looking for movies and unable to find what I'm looking for unless I get a DVD in the mail.
