Sprint and Hulu have partnered together so Sprint customers can enjoy access to Hulu’s content for free.
New and existing Sprint Unlimited Freedom subscribers can add Hulu at no extra charge. Hulu has three services tiers: streaming with limited commercials for $8 per month, streaming with no commercials for $12 per month, and streaming with live TV for $40 per month.
The Sprint promotion applies to Hulu’s entry-level limited commercials plan. Sprint and Hulu hope to offer an upgrade option for Hulu’s sports and news-focused live TV plan in the near future, but potential pricing wasn’t disclosed.
Sprint Unlimited Freedom customers can stream HD content over the network, though only some of Hulu’s content is available in HD.
Sprint says customers can sign up for free access to Hulu starting November 17. The move by Sprint and Hulu mirrors a similar tie-up between T-Mobile and Netflix.
