CBS to "geo-block" access to its news, talk and sports stations Thursday
The March 10 Taylor on Radio-Info newsletter says “This ends the temporary and unexpected reprieve from the new CBS policy, where CBS joined the ranks of those streamers which cut off access to their online product for computer users outside the United States.” At first, the block affected only the music stations. Now a CBS memo says that on Thursday, March 11, it “will complete all phases of the GEO-IP project…this includes all music, talk, news and sports stations streaming [their] broadcasts.” Foreign users will still be able to download podcasts and “episodes-on-demand.” But if they click on a live stream, they get a message “directing them to our sister property Last.fm, where the consumer can enjoy endless personalized radio stations and discover more music.”
