Kind of cool if true...

CBS announced a new subscription Internet streaming service on Thursday that allows people to watch its live television programming and thousands of its current and past shows on demand without paying for a traditional TV subscription.

The new “CBS All Access” service, costing $5.99 a month, is the first time that a traditional broadcaster will make a near-continuous live feed of its local stations available over the web to non-pay-TV subscribers. At its start, the live stream will be available in 14 markets in the United States.
CBS’s announcement (http://investors.cbscorporation.com/phoenix.zhtml?c=99462&p=irol-newsArticle&ID=1978514) comes a day after HBO said it would start an Internet-only offering (http://www.nytimes.com/2014/10/16/business/media/time-warner-chief-to-brief-investors-on-plans-for-growth.html) that would not require a traditional television subscription.
The moves by CBS and HBO signal the arrival of a new age of web-delivered television, where viewers have more options to pay only for the networks or programs they want to watch — and to decide how, when and where to watch them.
