Hulu gets nasty, blocks Boxee RSS browser from videos (businessinsider.com)

The next step is adding user agent spoofing to Boxee, and I don't think that Hulu has a counter for that other that lawyers. I hope it doesn't come to that, though: I kind of want to like Hulu.


here's the answer for everyone.. get a cheap used pc, for around 100 or less. Hook it up to your tv, using vga or hdmi. Buy wireless mouse and keyboard, or gyro mouse. Enjoy hulu, crackle, comedy central, youtube, and what ever other content you want. Its that easy.


Why deal with the tv set? My even cheaper setup: live in a tiny apt where the home office is in the living room and just rotate the monitor towards the couch when you want to watch stuff online. Works especially well with an apple remote.
