ABC (owned by Disney) has recently announced their partnership with our favorite online streaming site Hulu. This comes as a devastating strike to Google who was also negotiating a deal with ABC to put some of their streaming content on YouTube. Rejoice, you can now stream episodes of Gray's Anatomy and Lost from Hulu with very few commercial interruptions.
Hulu, a joing partnership of NBC and Fox has now added Disney, which brings it to 3 out 4 nationwide TV networks. Only CBS is missing, despite that Hulu more and more becomes the central place to watch your free streams online. Hulu is not the best place to stream movies though, only TV shows and other non-feature content.
In unrelated news, the open source media center Boxee has now released an aplha version that runs on Windows. They also fixed Hulu streaming problems. You can download a private alpha here.
Boxee also supports Joost, MTV, Youtube and many other online streaming sources. It can stream music from Pandora and Last.FM, not to mention all the movies, pictures and MP3's on your computer or in your network.
