According to sources , Yahoo CEO Marissa Mayer has met with Hulu executives, with a potential bid on the horizon. Hulu, the premium streaming site owned by News Corp., Disney and Comcast (NBCU) has been up for sale for a couple of months and has some big time suitors. Yahoo recently tried to purchase video streaming site DailyMotion, but was blocked by the French government. It appears Yahoo is trying to get into the digital content business but Hulu would certainly be more expensive than DailyMotion would have been.

Additionally, the service now has over four million premium Hulu Plus subscribers, each paying $8 per month. Permalink | Comments ...
