Which do you prefer? I currently have a subscription to Netflix but the movie selection is pretty awful. About 80% of the movies are things I've never heard of. Is Hulu more likely to have a better selection?

Hulu's movie selection is crap unless you're a fan of the Criterion collection. get Hulu+ if you're interested in current TV shows that are on TV right now, Netflix if you want movies and older TV shows and don't mind not being able to see the latest seasons of new ones.
also, be aware that Hulu has issues regarding which shows are available on mobile devices or web only.
and shingi, the movie selection on Netflix is not that great IMO, especially with them about to lose Starz content — they don't cycle them out nearly fast enough for me, at least. it's not about 'comfort zone' if you've already watched everything they have to offer in your genres of choice.

@shingi: true, they do have a decent foreign film section, but most of the time i've got it going in the background while i'm doing something else, so i can't be wasting time paying close attention to subtitles, y'know? :3

@Oddy: you can search Hulu on your own — it'll tell you on each show page what's available for free and for Plus and whether it's web-only or available for both web and mobile. If it's the US version you're interested in, here you go, and if it's the UK version, try this page.

since I watch primarily TV shows, I can do either, I use netflix though (to watch seasons of shows already aired or shows no longer airing), and suppliment it with the basic free hulu (for current seasons of TV shows if I don't see them on tv as they air), personally, I think Netflix is better, but that's just my take
@Splat: the TV channel does suck, but Starz provides a surprising amount of random content for Netflix — i remember Tangled being a Starz presentation... but it's a Disney movie, so what's up with that, y'know? lol
