People scoping out live TV streaming subscriptions on the Fubo website will now notice a new addition: Hulu Plus Live TV.
Fubo is now displaying its full content portfolio following the combining of Disney’s Hulu Plus Live TV business with Fubo. Additional subscription options include Fubo Sports, Fubo Pro, Fubo Latino and Hulu Plus Live TV Español.
Disney and Fubo announced in October that their merger deal had closed, noting in a press release that people could still sign up for separate Fubo and Hulu Plus Live TV services. You can still stream Hulu Plus Live TV in the Hulu app and Fubo in the Fubo app.
With the new integration on Fubo’s site, you can view a comparison chart with Fubo’s pre-existing plans and Hulu Plus Live TV. Selecting “Try Hulu Plus Live TV” takes you straight to Hulu’s site to sign up.
During an earnings call on Wednesday, Fubo CEO David Gandler noted that Hulu Live includes NBC and Versant networks, which Fubo hasn’t offered since November due to a carriage dispute with NBCUniversal.
“Importantly, we believe we have successfully navigated the loss of NBCU on Fubo, even during a period when NBC held a dominant portion of February’s sports programming,” Gandler said. “Customers continued to access that content through Hulu Live, and incremental churn at the combined business during the quarter was minimal.”
Fubo also announced during its earnings call that it plans to launch an AI assistant this fall that sports watchers can use to search content they have recorded for game highlights. Fubo is adding the assistant to its Roku, Apple TV and mobile apps to start, and it plans to extend it “to news and entertainment talk shows, enabling the Fubo app to instantly retrieve any clip our customers are looking for,” Gandler said during the call.
