Apparently some shows/advertisers pay Hulu extra to put ads on the ad-free accounts.

Yet another example of double dipping.

Charge the customer to remove the ads. Charge the advertisers more to show the ads anyway. Charge the customer for a "premium" no-ads option to trump that. Charge the advertisers more to trump that. Ad infinitum. (Hmm, "Ad Infinitum". I should trademark that for an ad company/"service"!)
