But $5 for a video? Ridiculous. I am all for paying for shows, but I too think a lot of people will be jumping into the piracy game over this.

But 5 bucks? Back to BT for me. And you're right, I picked up the Heroes Season One DVD (not HD, alas) for 35 bucks... that'd get me what, 7 episodes from "Hulu"... I don't think so. Even a 1-month subscription to Netflix would be world's cheaper... In all honesty, I stopped Bit Torrenting some shows when I could just get them quick, clean, and cheap from iTunes. But 5 bucks?
