Hulu Blocks Access to Internet-to-TV Software

Hulu, the joint venture of NBC Universal and News Corp., announced yesterday that it will block users of Boxee, an application that allows users to watch video delivered via the Internet on their TVs, from accessing its trove of TV shows and movies.

The reason, according to Hulu CEO Jason Kilar’s blog post: “Our content providers requested that we turn off access to our content via the Boxee product, and we are respecting their wishes.”
