So, instead of offering live TV and on-demand streaming as two different products for two different audiences, Hulu decided to combine the two for a unique viewing experience. When you log in to your account, you're working in a mirror image of the original account. That way, Hulu gives you the option to watch two different screens simultaneously—one Live TV and one on-demand streaming—all without interfering with one another.
You can even upgrade your Hulu plan to include unlimited screens if it's a shared account with family members. Hulu has always prided itself on being an innovative company that isn't afraid to change its ways.
It was first created in as a simple on-demand streaming service. Now, Hulu has all but reinvented on-demand streaming and live TV at a time when live channels and cable TV are dying.
With the help of future streaming technology, faster internet speeds, and an increase in the number of devices per American household, it's safe to say that Hulu isn't going anywhere. It wouldn't be surprising if they uprooted their entire technical infrastructure and introduced new, cutting-edge streaming technology to meet rising demand.
