Hulu DID start out with ads. When they launched it was an entirely ad supported service. Hulu+ didn't come until years later. After several years of running two tiers of service, free ad supported and paid ad free, they dropped the free tier. Now, years later, we're back to ads with Hulu, but this time you pay for the privilege.
