Online video service Hulu is exploring putting itself up for sale after receiving an unsolicited takeover offer, people familiar with the matter said Tuesday.
The offer was large enough to make Hulu's board review the deal and consider seeking other potential buyers, said the people, who spoke on condition of anonymity because the discussions are confidential. They would not disclose the amount of the offer nor the bidder.
Are Disney and Stan Australia about to partner up and offer members a highly discounted bundle deal? All signs suggest that just might be the case.

The rumors are true — you can now get Hulu (well, most of it) without the ads. You’ll just have to pay more to avoid all those obnoxious, repetitive commercial interruptions.
Title is somewhat unclear... Offered itself for purchase sounds better
Edit - Thanks for changing it.

Sounds like a case of "HOW MANY ZEROS??!"
