CBS Corporation today announced the launch of a commercial-free plan for the CBS ALL ACCESS subscription service. In addition to the existing subscription offering of $5.99/month, subscribers now have the option to watch CBS All Access's on-demand content commercial-free for $9.99/month.
"The foundation of
CBS ALL ACCESS is not only about giving
CBS fans access to more of the content they want, but also giving them more choice in how they watch their favorite
CBS programming," said Marc DeBevoise, President and Chief Operating Officer of
CBS Interactive. "The addition of a commercial-free plan gives our subscribers even more ways to customize their
CBS viewing experience - from which devices to whether they watch in or out of the home, and now with commercials or without."
With the commercial-free plan, subscribers will be able to watch
CBS All Access's on-demand library of more than 7,500 episodes, including full current seasons of primetime hits like BIG BROTHER, BLUE BLOODS,
MADAM SECRETARY and
THE ODD COUPLE among many others, as well as late night, daytime and news programming, all without commercials.
CBS All Access's upcoming original series, including the next chapter of the legendary "Star Trek" TV franchise, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY, a spinoff of "The Good Wife" and a new digital edition of "Big Brother" will also be available commercial-free under the $9.99/month plan.
Subscribers to the $5.99/month plan will continue to experience reduced commercials when watching on-demand content and be able to watch
CBS Classics without commercials. Current subscribers will have the option to move to the commercial-free plan by logging on to their account through CBS.com.
For the commercial-free plan,
CBS All Access's live-streaming offering of local
CBS Television stations, which is available throughout the U.S. in more than 150 markets, will continue to feature the same commercials as the over-the-air broadcast, and select on-demand shows will include promotional interruptions.
CBS
ALL ACCESS is available online at CBS.com, on mobile devices and tablets via the
CBS App for iOS, Android and Windows 10, and on Roku Players, Apple TV, Xbox One, Xbox 360, Chromecast, Android TV, Amazon Fire TV and Fire TV Stick, with more connected device platforms coming soon.
