There are two ways to get ahead in this world.
One is to be better and let your products speak for themselves.
The other way is to bash others products to deflect deficiencies in your own product.
I've seen managers that move ahead this way too...
Hulu is getting decent reviews. I understand the guys position, the advertising dollars are way higher than being able to supplement income with outright purchases and they need to protect that. I don't see any reason they can't continue to do both. Some folks want to own their shows and some would like to see the episodes they missed. I think both can be successful in their own right, but these guys want it all. Even if it kills them.
