It is important to keep in mind that Hulu Plus does have commercials with their content. Even if you pay for their membership, you will have to sit through commercial breaks. This means an extra 30 seconds to 2 minutes, depending on commercial candy series break length, of commercials. It is not a big deal to everyone, but it may annoy some, especially if you pay for their service.

Watching your videos from anywhere is important, as well. Whether you ride public transit to work and want to watch a show on the way or you like sitting in bed and watching a show before you sleep, you may want to make use of the service. Both services are available on numerous media streaming devices so this is not that difficult. You can find both on most major devices. If you have a Roku streaming device, as an example, you can watch either one on your television. With Amazon's own devices, it is even easier to switch between the two. Both are available on a variety of devices, allowing you to enjoy your movies and television shows at any time.

Amazon is not readily available for most Android devices, though. If you have an Android phone or tablet, it may not be easy to watch Amazon Instant Video on the go. This is because the application is not on the Google Play store and is not compatible with tablets. You can download it through the Amazon web store, but it does require you to download a second application. Even then, it does not work properly for everyone. Hulu, however, does work just fine on Android devices.
