Hulu Will Be Available to PS3 Owners Sans PlayStation Plus Starting Next Week

A PlayStation Plus membership will no longer be a requirement for the PlayStation 3 Hulu Plus app starting next week.

The app will be available for download and “incorporates some of the feedback” Hulu Plus has received from PlayStation Plus members who have been using the service since July. PlayStation 3 owners will no longer have to be invited and the subscription will cost $9.99 per month.
