Hulu Vs Amazon

Decent Essays
Before ever having to research this, the top two competitors for Netflix are Amazon and Hulu. I know this because our family uses these other two services, with Amazon our second favorite in online streaming. From a personal perspective, Amazon Prime allows you to purchase and stream movies that are not available on Netflix making for satisfied family members. Netflix does not have this option currently, so if we want to watch a movie that is more current in the film industry we turn to Amazon, and for a small fee have 24 hours to watch the movie. However, Netflix has original series that have become very popular that differentiates them from Amazon and Hulu. Hulu is third in our household, but we also use this service on occasion.

    The top two competitors for Netflix are Amazon Prime with about 13% of the American household market share and Hulu Plus which has about 6.5% of the American market. With 35% of American households having broadband access and zero streaming services, there is no wonder the giant cable company Tier Warner offers HBO Go as a streaming service. Let 's not overlook the fact that there are still plenty of websites that offer pirated movies and TV shows for free with a quick search engine look. Hulu also offers a free service, along with Veoh, Crackle, and UStream (chat online while you watch live video streams). When Netflix entered the European market it "immediately found itself navigating fierce competition from local streaming services and pressure from new apps that make watching pirated movies and shows easier than ever before."…
