Orb Live brings free Hulu content to Android

▤ Summary

Orb Live users don’t need to pay anything to access Hulu’s content, save for a one-time $10 fee for the app. I’ve had a chance to play a little bit with Orb Live and tried it with both a HTC MyTouch Slide 3G as well as a HTV EVO 4G. I asked Orb Networks about the hardware requirements on the handset side, but all the company could tell me was that anything above Android 1.6 should work. Orb has been around for some time, offering transcoding and media center solutions for game consoles and other living room devices. Its foray into the mobile space puts more pressure on premium content providers to extend their support for Android handsets.
