CBS and Apple today announced that primetime CBS programs - including 'CSI' and 'Survivor - are now available in the U.S. via the iTunes Music Store for $1.99 per episode. The CBS Television Network programming available for purchase and download includes Emmy Award-winning reality series "Survivor," popular dramas "NUMB3RS" and "NCIS" and three CSI programs "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," "CSI: Miami" and "CSI: NY."
CBS will offer on iTunes episodes from the just-completed 2005/2006 season (and earlier for some series) as well as the upcoming season, which starts in September. New episodes in the fall will be available on iTunes the day after they appear on the network.
CBS is late in joining the iTunes bandwagon, with ABC, NBC and Fox having already hopped on board. However, earlier this year, CBS Sports made the 2006 NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament available on iTunes; and Showtime, a division of CBS Corporation, brought iTunes customers two of its most popular series: "Sleeper Cell" and "Weeds."
