Up to now admission to most TV-on-internet websites has been free. But one of the category's major sites, Hulu, may soon start charging for online viewing of some shows.

All content on Hulu has been free during the site's two years of operation. But the management has spent the past six months figuring out how to "strike a balance between what people expect to watch for free online and what they would be willing to pay for," reports the Los Angeles Times.

The result may be that new shows would continue to be free but older ones would require a $5/month subscription. Series that may fall under the new pricing regimen include 30 Rock, Modern Family, and House.
