So Disney is selling Hulu to Fubo and loaning them the money to buy it? This can&#x27;t be good. Why would Hulu with nearly 4x the subscribers give it away to Fubo? Just because Fubo sued over another service Disney wanted to start? It makes no sense unless Disney wants out of streaming that isn&#x27;t Disney or ESPN branded.<p>Fubo is to be the caretaker of the &quot;iconic brand) (Hulu) which means it will go away.

This actually reduces competition as there are now only three viable streaming services that include local channels; YTTV, Hulu\Fubo, and DirecTv.

I wonder if or how much prices will be raised ? I do not subscribe to Hulu or Youtube, but right now I think the price for Hulu is somewhat reasonable.
