The rumors that started in June appear to be becoming a reality. Hulu will soon start charging for content. Hulu board member Chase Cary said it’s time for the site to adopt a “meaningful subscription model.” He was quick to add that the entire site would not be fee based but was unsure exactly what more »

Oh, say it isn’t so! Based on hints given by Jonathon Miller, the newly appointed chief digital officer of News Corp., Hulu may not remain the place to go for free video on the ‘net, because it will be coming with a price tag attached to it.

Miller used to run AOL, and hasn’t even gotten to a Hulu board meeting yet (that will happen Monday). But, that isn’t stopping him from speculating on the direction that he sees Hulu going. According to statements he made at an Internet Week event sponsored by The Hollywood Reporter, he can see a future which includes at least some of the movies and TV shows on Hulu only being made available to subscribers. “In my opinion the answer could be yes. I don’t see why over time that shouldn’t happen. I don’t think it’s on the agenda for Monday [but] it seems to me that over time that could be a logical thing.”
