$39.99/month to watch reruns of The Big Bang Theory? Shoot me now.
CBS was all geared up to use the new 'Star Trek' as a lure for getting people to sign up for their stand-alone CBS service.
Is this a sign of them giving in and finally partnering with someone? If so, great. I'm way more likely to do this than pay for their own service.
But if not, and they hold some content back, it's not worth it.
I was thinking maybe I would get a single month of CBS All Access during Star Trek's final month so I could just binge all the episodes for $8.
$40 is far too much. It's back in the realm of regular cable TV, just with less content.
I wish $40 would be a traditional net cable-cost (plus broadband+hidden fees+taxes). Nowhere close.$40 is far too much. It's back in the realm of regular cable TV, just with less content.
"Under $40" reads to me as $39.99 a month. Not terrible since it includes the paid Hulu service as well as cloud DVR, but I really hate CBS and couldn't care less about their shows. I think DirecTV Now has the best lineup and price currently, but their service is completely broken with QP1508 errors every 10 minutes, and they have no DVR.
I get live TV from broadcast networks for free. Old school antenna.
(We also have Netflix and Sling.)
its QP1502....i have seen enough of them...
I'm getting CBS (and PBS, NBC, Fox, ABC, etc) for free with my TabloTV and I get DVR too. I did have to buy the device and subscribe to the guide service (which I did with a single lifetime payment). Now I've added DirecTV Now and I really have all I need. CBS trying to be exclusive is a joke to me.
I'll use my antenna and buy shows i really want to watch a la carte from Amazon, thank you. Or discover shows I missed two years ago on Netflix.

I am not sure if I am missing something, but is this article saying that Hulu will have a streaming service, that will have Hulu's current content, with some movies from Disney, and now CBS? and maybe CW and Showtime sometime in the future?
Why would anyone pay $40 for this? Unless it is way under $40.....
I am sure I am missing something.
I thought I was missing something too. Maybe not. So, what happens when FOX, NBC, and ABC get added? 40 bucks, 40 bucks, 40 bucks? Sorry, no.
Again, maybe I'm missing something here, but $40, seems like an outrageously high price.
