Is there some reason you believe that Hulu has a legal duty to provide old TV shows to your users?
Doesn't Hulu (et al) have an obligation to provide service to their paying customers?
Does this obligation extend to providing service independent of the carrier that paying customers uses?
Or if Hulu choose to exclude known problem carriers (i.e. VPN providers) don't they have an obligation to confirm that their exclusions are accurate? Further, to correct problems if their data is shown to be inaccurate?
There are laws about discriminating against protected classes like racial or religious minorities but I am fairly sure that "random subscribers of some ISP in Utah" is not such a class."
It's not a law, but it is a service agreement between Hulu and their customers.
