AT&T launched a Web site Friday that offers users free access to full-length movies and television shows.
The site, called AT&T Entertainment, has a similar design to Hulu, and it features content from the likes of NBC, CBS, CNBC, ABC, SyFy, Oxygen, The CW, USA Network, and other networks. The site shares some of the same content as Hulu due to a licensing agreement, and it uses the Hulu embedded player for some shows and films.
