Is that a threat or a promise?
Name one thing worthwhile on CBS that can’t be found online or viewed elsewhere.
Not seeing anything unfortunate about it.
We’ve lost the other two networks, another will not be a loss.
These sorts of disputes have happened before, and they always get resolved, with minimal disruption to the viewers.
That is, if you consider the loss of CBS programming a major life problem in the first place...................
what’s the bad news?
If they really want to save money they should jettison CNN...
Cable company and local/network channels pull this stunt at contract re-negotiation time.
Each claims that the other is trying to rip them off by failing to negotiate new rates.
Regardless, the end result is an increase in the cable bill.
Soooo what is the problem? CBS Blackout...sounds good to me since I do not bother to watch that network.
We cut the cable last year and hooked up an OTA antenna. We can watch CBS if we want to but we rarely watch it.
BTW, love streaming. Watched TV over cable the other day and what was most striking were the flood of advertisements. We were staying in a hotel that offered cable TV. Streaming is so much better and a lot cheaper to boot.
Heck, I can’t even spell AT&T...so I would never write them a check.
All of this is getting out of hand. HBO is gone forever from DISH after threats and rate wars did not work out. With football season around the corner, the networks that carry the NFL and NCAA are going to try to flex their muscle.
It looks to me that the traditional Network programming and Cable/Satellite content provider model is breaking apart. For those with available bandwidth (in cities), there may be more choices via some a la carte arrangement. But those in rural areas may be going back to the future with 2 channels of B&W and sign on at 0800 and sign off at 2300.
More competition should translate into more product at a cheaper price, but with the government in the mix, it may have the opposite effect.
With most folks having cut the cord, this doesn’t have much impact any longer.
Everyone call AT&T to tell them how much better you like the service since they removed CBS.
Suggest a YouTube or ViVo star as better entertainment.
What? No CBS?
OH NOES!!!!
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Note to CBS: I haven’t watched anything on your net in years. Put something on I wanna each and I’ll crank up my give-a-dang.
What if SeeBS disappeared and no one noticed?
If not fake news...Then, Good News!
They act like this is a bad thing.
So
