ABC Coming to Hulu?

"We're big fans of video-streaming site Hulu-heck, we gave it an Eddy Award last year-but if there's one area in which the service sometimes falls short, it's the selection. Sure, there's plenty of content from NBC, FOX, and all their adorable little netlets, but that's because each of those companies owns a substantial stake of Hulu."
Back in February of this year, Hulu pulled all CBS content after CBS launched TV.com, and now ABC is in talks to bring their content to Hulu, in exchange for an ownership position. I'm all for getting as much content as possible on the net to make it easier to access. I've about had it with Dish and Directv for various reasons but I'm limited in what I can get where I live so I'm stuck with one of them (currently Dish, although their lack of ABC programming because they can't reach an "equitable solution" with Fisher Broadcasting is causing me to consider going back to Directv).
