Hulu Coming To The UK

Hulu has gained a reputation as the Cadillac of Internet television services, with the backing of three major networks. Now, according to reports, it’s set to be available outside the US, expanding to the UK this fall, according to the Daily Telegraph.

The content will include some 3,000 hours of American programming, backed with ads.

Rumors also have Hulu in negotiations with UK networks to make their programs available, according to Brand Republic.

Hulu is said to be in talks with ITV and Channel 4, although there’s disagreement over control of ads, while there are also talks with the BBC in progress. If those all come to fruition, it could make Hulu the biggest Internet broadcaster.

Hulu has already signed an agreement that makes several British shows available online in the US.

Pizza vending machines are coming, and they’re perfect for the pandemic era

How many people have touched your food before it hits your stomach? It’s a question that has obsessed many of us in recent years. In happier times, it led to the farm-to-table or farm-to-fork movement, which sought to minimize the number of steps between the original food producer, be ranch, fishery, or brewery, and the end consumer. In the less cheerful times of coronavirus, when seemingly everyone is on a Cliff’s Notes course to become an expert epidemiologist, it’s important for another reason.

Now, reducing the number of people who have come into contact with our food is important to lower the possibility of spreading the novel coronavirus known as COVID-19. That’s not just the number of people who harvest and prepare the food for consumption, but also those who come into contact with it while packaging it up and delivering it to us. Even the once-straightforward act of ordering your favorite takeout pizza is suddenly fraught with a level of risk that extends way beyond long-term questions about your consumption of cholesterol-raising saturated fat.
