Boeing is testing its air taxi, Elon Musk is making more promises about Teslas and there's a Chinese phone that has zero ports -- not even a speaker grille. If you want live TV, however, you're paying more than before.Hulu cuts the price of its basic service to $6 per month Passive aggression is the source of most price cuts, right? In a not-so-subtle dig at Netflix's recent price hikes, Hulu is becoming more affordable... at least on its basic tier where the service will cut the price from $8 to $6 per month as of February 26th. The ad-free tier will still cost $12 per month, but if you want the Hulu Live TV bundle, you'll be paying $5 more per month ($45) for the privilege of watching shows as they premiere. Hulu's rivals don't end at Netflix, however: YouTube TV just launched nationwide coverage, and it starts at $40 per month.
