+CBS has [announced a new venture dubbed the CBS Interactive Audience Network][1] which will provide ad-supported television programming through partnerships with AOL, Microsoft, CNET, Comcast, Joost, Bebo, Brightcove, Netvibes, Sling Media and Veoh.
+
+Today's announcement does not affect CBS's existing deals Yahoo!, Apple and Amazon which will continue as they were.
+
+The press release listed CBS shows such as CSI, Survivor and David Letterman as well as "classic programming from the vast library of CBS Television Distribution."
+
+If anyone had any doubts concerning Joost's seriousness about become a big time media delivery system, this announcement, with Joost's name up there with Comcast and AOL, should put those doubts to rest.
+
+If nothing else, this will bring Joost some much needed content -- the sort of things that people actually want to watch rather than the existing Joost content, which often feels like after thoughts and cast-off programming.
+
+Hopefully Joost will kick out some more beta invites in the near future and we'll be sure to hook you up when they do.
