PlayOn Released on Android, Stream Hulu and Netflix on the Go

PlayOn finally introduced an Android app which means that the hundreds of thousands of us wanting Hulu in a legitimate fashion can now sleep easier at night.  For those of you new to PlayOn, just know that it’s a paid subscription software that goes onto your PC, but allows you to stream Hulu, Netflix, and almost any other video site to a variety of wireless media devices like an XBOX360 or PS3.  The fact that it now does Android though, is monumental.  App is free, subscriptions start at around $39.99 per year, I believe.
