As of January 31st, 2014, Hulu Desktop has been discontinued and is no longer available for download or use. Download.com offers no downloadable file and presents data on the last available version for informational purposes only.
Hulu Desktop is a lean-back viewing experience for your personal computer. It features a sleek new look that's optimized for use with standard Windows Media Center remote controls or Apple remote controls, allowing you to navigate Hulu's entire library with just six buttons. For users without remotes, the application is keyboard and mouse-enabled. Hulu Desktop is a downloadable application and will work on PCs and Macs. It will initially launch as a beta product during which we plan to gather and incorporate user feedback to improve the service.

Pros
Can have free entertainment. We haven't had cable or satellite for 6 years
Cons
Sometimes you have to keep pausing the movies so that they can buffer so that it would quit messing up. e.g. would just stop playing or would skip a lot

Pros
It can replace network and cable tv. Fill up your queue, organize it, and sit back and watch. I nice variety of shows and movies (there's something for everyone). Pause shows search menu close window and it's still paused. Good desktop tv
Cons
Commercials, but not many. Some shows expire. Needs more variety.
Summary
It's best used with a Hulu account (it's free or you can pay). Organize at Hulu site then watch on desktop. Cool program.
It's wonderful to have so many of my favorite shows at the click of my mouse!
Cons
There is no Christian Programming that I could see. That would be a good addition to HULU Desktop! :)
Summary
I'm grateful to be able to have it--and have the opportunity to watch something other than the Godless sinful shows designed to brainwash our kids and grand kids..

Pros
Good full screen display and ability to navigate through entire episode.
Cons
Video quality is not Great, menu is hard to navigate.
Summary
I use it to watch shows I have missed or to re watch shows I like but the quality using auto is sub par as I can watch HD full screen through other players and not have this issue. Good enough for a laugh you may have missed, but not for HD animal planet type shows.
