It sounds like they're going to limit content to US audiences. If an international partner wants to pay for streaming rights, then they'll drop the IP filters for that country. It still sounds fine...it means they get the content up there, and available. It is essentially building an e-library of shows that they'll be able to repurpose forever.

CBS holds the streaming rights for Y&R in the US, and all the non CBS streams (including Youtube) still carry the CBS logo and ads.

It sounds like B&B won't do it like that...will be interesting to see.

This sounds virtually identical to the Agnes Nixon/AMC international streaming thing I linked a week or two ago. Soaps are going on the net. It seems the WGA writers were right to fight for a share of streaming rights after all.

They saw that jend2004 or whoever the hell was uploading illegal current B&B content to the web was getting thousands of hits with streaming the show, so they wanted to get in on the fun. Who can blame them? It's their stuff.

Just don't take down the classic content, dudes!

so AMC & OLTL are the only soaps not legally online? What a shame.

I have to say i really do not watch any soaps on tv anymore. I watch Y&R on youtube. Days on iTunes. and those are the only two current soaps im watching now (full time), i also watch Another World on Hulu.

I really do think this is the future, if there is one.

    • At this point and laziness that I've witnessed... I doubt anything will be better or improved in this show. Bell doesn't care.
    • I know I've said it before, but I'm loving Rory Gibson as Michael. He was wasted on Young and the Restless.

    • I watched Monday's and Tuesday's episodes last night but feel asleep and missed most of Tuesday's episode. Still not happy certain characters weren't there. It makes no sense. It must be Days awful schedule of taping.

    • Today was the day everybody recreated the flower ceremony from John and Marlena's 1999 wedding

      And once again, it was beautiful. I also couldn't help but laugh though when Brady brought up John's use of his eyebrow whenever he dealt with his kids or grandkids. It's little lighthearted moments like that, that really have helped make these episodes and this tribute so real and genuine. And even though they couldn't get Alison Sweeney back for John's memorial, I'm glad that they came up with the idea to have Eric read a letter from Sami. The way that the letter was written is pretty much what Sami would have said if she had made it back to say goodbye to John.  Marlena and Bo's eulogies were the ones that got me today. I seriously wonder if their's or anyone else's were scripted or improvised. And I agree Bo, John's huge heart and compassion was his true power.

    • Yeah, right, they've got Cam playing Love2Hate Drew in extremis & they're not gonna play that hand out?!!!  I figure they use the prison beat-down for a redemptive phase but only when they think they've wrung every possible drop out of this absolutely odious every day villain they've created!

    • Respectfully agree to disagree. We had 4 episodes with original flashbacks integrated well into contemporary scenes that were sweet, romantic, that resonated, that hit all the possible nostalgic chords & that shows me the writing team not only cares for these 2 characters but that they were really excited about writing for them. And, we also have the quote from Korte/VanEtten beginning of the year-ish that they considered Lucky & Liz a foundational couple for the canvas.  I thought Lucky's saying he didn't think he'd stay once she turned down his marriage proposal to be good character motivation. I also thought the idea of some summer travels with Aiden supports character integrity.  Going by his exit interviews, what's left is people & logistics/scheduling, etc. & there's no way a writing team can anticipate an actor taking an out in their contract ahead of time. They have to deal with it, in the moment, when it comes up & likely it's going to make a bit of a mess to whatever they have sketched out in the long story thrust. 
    • I had a driver taking me to Infusion the other day & we were talking about soaps. She was out of touch but had been a CBS fan, from TPIR, all day till Oprah. Telling her about BTG. What network? CBS. When: 2pm. Is it between ATWT & GL? Oh, girl, you are so behind. So, she was appalled when I briefly brought her up to date BUT she remained interested in hearing more about BTG, so that was a plus.  Last weekend I got a haircut so it is the way I like it, short & spiky but of course it's purple. Recently, I was waiting for my ride outside the Infusion Center & a woman comes up to me, about my age, short spiky hair but all white. She raves about my purple hair & says she is a pancreatic cancer survivor & purple is that color (which I knew) and she is thinking going purple but doesn't know where to start. So I tell her about Splat, no bleach req'd, easy, etc. & she's getting excited & my driver pulled up, & stuck her head out & said, Donna? & she had purple hair, too! I felt like we were in a purple vortex. It was both lovely & surreal.
