Re: Why this is a really stupid move on Hulu's part

Isn't this much like England and the tax on TV.. or is it the antenna they tax? I don't know.. but Poland certainly isn't the only country that tax TV.. we do it here in the US, only, they don't really do a user-tax system which is more "fair".. we tax things SO unbalanced. In fact, they do tax Americans for TV, and then turned around and allowed the broadcasters to charge cable and satellite users each month for it.. now THAT'S the American way!

They just tax for owning tv, regArdless of having broadcast

They may tax here on bills but it's like few dollars. The real reapers are telco, cable who charge for having hd.

We also get taxes, in general, to operate the public television stations in this country too.. the FCC and all their cronies don't come for free.

And yes, I agree on the HD comment... they've been paying that bill off on the back of pay TV subscribers for years now, and no one seems to notice, or really care. Shame.

Federal Taxes... money is taken from that to fund the FCC.
