I saw a post on another forum saying that CBS DNS had changed broadcast locations.Sure enough, the CBS E. coast feed is now coming out of DC instead of NY and the CBS W. coast feed is now coming out of San Diego. Not sure why (CBS dispute with DTV?) but it will also effect anyone who changed their service address to NY or LA to avoid DNS charges. No CBS for you!

My west coast CBS feed is still coming from KCBS Los Angles and my east coast CBS feed is still coming from WCBS New York.

That explaines why my neighbor who has Direct TV was getting CBS news from San Diego on his CBS channel at 11 AM.

I was really surprised to find that Judge Judy (from LA) was gone and the San Diego CBS did not carry it. Boo Hoo!

DTV and Nexstar that owns about 190 stations are in dispute and all of those stations are off DTV.Wish they would would fix the double posting on this board which is due to the invalid errors that trigger this.

Could it be Nora Odonald lives in DC

Now DISH and one of the Networks here in MI are in the same battle. I didn't pay it much attention so I am not sure which, but this is just an ongoing thing that pops up ever 3-5 years depending upon how long the partners terms were agreed upon.

Not in Birmingham market either. Football season is getting close and I am getting nervous about CBS. They carry the SEC spotlight game each Saturday and many Sunday NFL games.

No this has nothing to do with streaming. It's just one of the regular battles the Networks and DISH and DirecTV have when new contracts are up for renewal.

Not up to speed on all this but I have to ask.

Is all this shakeup in the 'media' industry because of streaming?
Is there not a danger that this is all a passing fad and when the shine wears off they will be stuck with a huge $$$ white elephant.

Quick search, there are 10+ major streaming sites now. That pie is getting sliced up into smaller and smaller pieces.

This inconvenience actually is not so bothersome at my home. It is specifically a problem where I tailgate, with the season approaching. My batwing just won't get a reliable signal.

I've seen these squabbles several times, over the years. This one has lasted longer than any I can remember.

I doubt it will take too long for DirecTV and CBS to come to an agreement. It never does when these kinds of negotiations go South.

You need to get the Roku box and there you can get access to what you mention plus thousands of more channels..

Plus just about all local news channels are now streaming, you can be on the other side of the world and watch your local new

Can't afford to pay for all the data if I stream TV every night in my RV.

I have DirecTV and, for one, will have to make some kind of change when football season arrives. SEC premium games are covered by CBS and I have trouble getting my local CBS channel OTA from our tailgate location. This just won't do.
