Disney Joins Hulu

Huffington Post reports:

Disney will be joining NBC Universal, News Corp, and Providence Equity Partners as a joint venture partner in online video site Hulu, it was announced Thursday morning.

Disney, which owns broadcast channel ABC as well as cable channels the Disney Channel, ABC Family, and SOAPnet, will make available content from these networks to be streamed over Hulu. Disney-owned ESPN is not mentioned in the announcement.

According to the release, "full-length episodes of hit current and library programs like Lost, Grey's Anatomy, Desperate Housewives, Private Practice, Ugly Betty, Scrubs, Greek, Hope and Faith, Less Than Perfect, Wizards of Waverly Place, Phineas and Ferb, Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, General Hospital, The View and The Secret Life of the American Teenager will soon be streamed on Hulu on an ad-supported basis."

This makes the price of a Yankee's ticket even less inviting.
