Univision Signs Pact To Supply Content To Hulu
Univision Communications, the leading media company serving Hispanic America, and Hulu have signed a multiyear content agreement that will bring hundreds of hours of top-rated Spanish-language novelas, variety shows, comedies, and reality series from the Univision family of networks to Hulu and Hulu Plus.
Launching later this year, the offering will include current season primetime programming from the Univision Network -- one of the top five networks in the country regardless of language -- as well as library content and more.
"Univision is committed to making the programs Hispanic Americans love accessible anytime and anywhere. The demand for Univision's content is tremendous and this will be the first time our most popular programming will be available on the Internet," Tonia O'Connor, president, distribution sales and marketing, at Univision Communications said in a release.
Hulu users will have next-day access to a selection of current season programming, while Hulu Plus subscribers will have much deeper access to current primetime episodes as well as hundreds of hours of library content. Hulu Plus subscribers will also have access to all the content available on the free Hulu service through any Hulu Plus enabled device.
