It was for the first season, but then they worked out a deal with Xbox/Microsoft. So they have a slightly larger budget now and the show looks better. I don't know the exact terms of the deal, but part of it is that they get first rights on distribution: the episodes are exclusive to msn.com and Xbox months before they are posted on YouTube. The show is still pretty low-budget, though (there's a bit in the gag reel about rushing to get the last shot of the day at a location before the sun goes down). Also, they can afford to have longer episodes.
Nice acronym, Mom!

I just saw somewhere that the kid who plays Jesse was in Spring Awakening with Lea Michele -- good one!
