CBS to Allow Snippets of Shows on Web

The Associated Press (Gary Gentile) reports that, “Fans of CBS shows will soon be able to slice clips from prime-time shows, send them to friends and even “mash” them together in ways that only a short time ago would have triggered complaints of copyright infringement.”
CBS CEO Leslie Moonves said Tuesday at the International Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas that, “his company would embrace products and technologies that allow viewers to “time shift” and “place shift” his network’s shows and interact with them in new ways.”
