Launched in July 2010, Hulu Plus offers streaming Hulu video content using Wi-Fi and 3G connections using an iPhone/iPod touch or iPad. The service, which costs $7.99 per month, offers videos from numerous sources including Fox, NBC Universal, The Walt Disney Company, and more. In April, Hulu blocked support for HDMI mirroring of their Hulu Plus app for the iPad. Thankfully, this has now returned.

The free Hulu Plus app is available in the App Store.
