I don't have Hulu and a friend spontaneously gave me his Hulu account information and password to use at will. Is it a sin to use his account?

Yes.

However, if you say 3 Our Fathers and 5 Hail Marys after every use of Hulu, you will avoid hell when you die.

Probably.

If you sign a user agreement promising not to do that and you do it, it's theft. And theft is sin.

Same thing for buying those Amazon firesticks that are jailbroken and have Kodi installed to allow you to stream content for free that should be paid for. If you're accessing entertainment for free against the wishes of the provider, it's theft.

I believe HULU and NETFLIX type programs allow for multiple users on one account.

Meaning no disrespect, but it's a perfect example of why the disconnect between blind obedience to religious tenets and trying to make one's way in a marketplace ruled by logical, empirical reality causes so much trouble and hostility.

In this particular case, a joint account out to resolve most of the issue,

No. God wants us to be smart and resourceful and not waste what we have. I taught my daughter from a very young age that it is a sin to pay full price for anything. She returned the favor by adding me to her Netflix account when she grew up.

So, is there such an agreement? I would think so. Is the person who takes advantage of another person breaking such an agreement culpable? IMO, yes. Honesty should encourage honesty. The companies involved in such media offerings pay for the privilege in order to make a profit. If all parties are willing to forgo such profit as in open source data, fine, otherwise property rights should be honored.
