A+E Networks to be Part of Hulu Streaming Service Lineup

Six A+E networks will be part of the lineup on Hulu's forthcoming virtual multichannel video programming distributor service, Hulu said in a news release Friday: A&E, History, Lifetime, LMN, FYITM and Viceland. “We’re pulling together the most valuable, well-rounded package of channels available for under $40,” Hulu Mike Hopkins said. The firm said its service, to launch this spring, has similar deals with CBS, 21st Century Fox and Disney covering more than 40 networks. Some of those companies own Hulu, as does Comcast's NBCUniversal.
