<prompt> Human: I hate having monthly subscriptions charged to my account, and would much rather pay for a full year in full.  <response>: Netflix offers gift certificates, so you could purchase one online for a full years balance, and they will calculate it for you keeping in mind the difference in price for each plan available. This is an easy way around the monthly payment. I know spotify offers the same service and I would be shocked if Hulu didnt.
