Hulu has rolled out a new interface for Hulu Plus on Roku, select Samsung TV and Blu-ray players and the Nintendo Wii.

The update mirrors changes made to the PlayStation 3 Hulu Plus interface last fall and this spring's Apple TV redesign.

The update is more living room-centric, with a focus on larger artwork, an easier way to scroll through recommendations and improved search. It also brings the Hulu Kids section into the living room.

Roku users should get the update now, as should 2012 and 2013 Samsung TV and Blu-ray owners. The update will hit the Wii soon.

At least five companies are reportedly bidding on Hulu — including Yahoo. While Hulu's top traffic draw is its free website, the more than 4 million paying Hulu Plus subscribers are the key to the company's future.

On this front, Hulu faces competition not only from cable companies, but also from Amazon and Netflix. Netflix is most dominant in this space, with more than 30 million subscribers and support on hundreds of different devices and platforms.

The new look is a good start. An area that Netflix and Amazon shine in is the uniformity of presentation. The more Hulu can do to make the service more accessible on big screen devices, the better.
