VIACOM BLOCKS GOOGLE TV DEVICES

Google TV started out with such promise. However, over the past few weeks ABC, NBC, CBS and Fox have blocked all access. Now, Viacom is blocking all their properties from Google TV devices. Viacom is the owner of MTV, VH1, Comedy Central, Nickelodeon, TV Land, Spike, Logo and CMT along with other lesser known media. Hopefully, Google will soon get agreements from these media companies so Google TV will realize its full potential. [Engadget]
