Hulu and its network TV owners are close to a new deal that will keep programs from NBC, Fox and ABC on the Web video site. An agreement to extend the content licenses that owners News Corp., Disney and NBCUniversal signed two years ago should be in place within a week, according to people familiar with the discussions. The joint venture’s basic structure reportedly will remain the same: Hulu.com will continue to be an ad-supported site, while the Hulu Plus subscription service will offer more programming, and the ability to watch it on devices like Apple’s iPad, according to Forbes.
