∞ Apple in talks to buy Hulu

Bloomberg:

Apple is in early talks that may lead to an acquisition offer for Los Angeles-based Hulu, said the people, who weren’t authorized to speak publicly.

This is interesting. Apple could do a great job with an streaming video service, but I don’t quite understand why Apple would need Hulu to make it happen. The company already has a new $1 billion data center, relationships with the networks and movie studios, and the technology to make it all happen.
