CBS launches a subscription service, like the cool kids are doing
CBS is launching its own subscription service, allowing America’s CSI addiction to escalate to dangerous levels. Called CBS All Access, the service will cost $5.99 a month and include a live stream of local CBS broadcasts, new shows the morning after they air, and, according to EW, ads (albeit fewer ads than on terrestrial TV broadcasts). CBS already comes free with cable or one of those digital antenna things, so the success of CBS All Access will likely ride on the binge-worthiness of its back catalog.
