Man, didn't think this TV could do more than it already does! I got lucky and found this TV on craigslist 2 days ago in pristine condition at half the cost. I was playing around with it all last nite and still haven't gotten to all the features. Great TV...especially for what I paid for it. :-)

No it does not, There is a menu screen when you turn on the device but no buttons to link you to Netflix or Hulu

THis app is missing even from 2012 Smart Tv's. I fail to understand any conflict of interest issues arising out of including the Amazon app. I am not sure which end is the hold up.

Hulu plus is like Netflix, you have to pay for it. The roku acts like a wireless router enabling you to view these programs on your tv through it, if you purchase them separately. So the answer to your question is no.

No. You have to have the subscription to run the app. I tried running Hulu through the browser, but they have the mobile flash locked down. That being said, between Crackle, Youtube, and Crunchyroll, there isn't much you will miss. The flash on board did ok with some webstreams (I really only tried SyFy's to watch some Eureka). Oh, and another thing that sucks about Hulu is they kill the stream to the tablet if you plug it in using HDMI.

Hulu: no. As of today, there is no working Hulu or Hulu+ app for Google TV. Hulu and Hulu+ are accessible through Playon, though. I also believe that the (not yet scheduled) upgrade to Google TV based on Android 4.2 WILL allow the existing Hulu+ app to work.Vudu: yes.

I believe there is an amazon instant video app now available for SmartHub. So. You would connect the blu ray player to your network, download updates, install amazon instant video app, then you can watch amazon tv through the bluray's "Smart" features.*Based on Charlie's response, perhaps the streaming app was never released for the blu ray player.. As he suggested though you may want to look into adding a Roku - I bought a refurb roku 2 xs for 48 bucks shipped and it's great. Roku 3 is not worth it if you're mainly looking to stream content*

I have never reset my tv but the apps on the TV suck. My Hulu app barely plays. I called samsung about the issue and tech support really couldn't help. So I don't use any of apps on the TV; I have an apple tv. I suggest you do something like that if you can't get the apps to work. The tv is still really awesome...the picture is amazing!

Totally forgot it had that capability Sonya..I also need to connect my Roku to my TV and figure out the wifi situation. Let me try working on that soon. I'll post a review as soon as I can. If you do yours first let me know. :) Thanks! Good luck! -Frank

ok, i fixed the issue, I had to change the DNS to 8.8.8.8, automatic DNS did not work. After that Netflix, funny thing is that Hulu worked with or without this setting.

Yes it has both wifi works good on vudu,netflix, not so much on hulu+ though but still good.

You can sign up for a one-week trial of Hulu Plus, however you will not be able to view Hulu content on the Roku without having a Plus subscription.

Not sure about Hula Plus but you need to have a Netflix account to access it thru the Roku.

There's a widget, called gjar, I believe. It's the app store. Unfortunately, It's slim pickings n they aren't very user friendly, all the time. My actual advice, would be 2 choose another brand. Blessings.

I just bought 2 LG Blu Ray players (w/ WI FI) and can't stream Amazon.... will most likely be returning BOTH of them, one is still in the shipping box unopened... BOO LG
