sling_Sling和其他流媒体服务为何不提供PBS？-CSDN博客

PBS doesn’t have the streaming rights to its shows, which is why cord cutting viewers like you can’t watch your local PBS station.

PBS没有其节目的流媒体播放权，这就是为什么像您一样无法观看本地PBS电台的收视观众的原因。

We’ve written in-depth reviews of Sling TV, YouTube TV, Playstation TV and more, but we never noticed something seemingly obvious: none of these services offers access to PBS.

我们已经对Sling TV ， YouTube TV ， Playstation TV等进行了深入的评论，但是我们从未发现任何看似显而易见的东西：这些服务都无法提供PBS的访问权限。

Here’s Jefferson Graham, writing for USA Today, explaining why:

这是杰弗逊·格雷厄姆(Jefferson Graham) 为《今日美国》撰写的原因：

The reasons for PBS’s absence are complicated, but it comes down to this: Unlike CBS and the other broadcast networks, PBS hasn’t acquired the on-demand streaming rights for all of its shows.

PBS缺席的原因很复杂，但可以归结为：与CBS和其他广播网络不同，PBS并未为其所有节目获得点播流媒体版权。

This isn’t necessarily a big deal: PBS offers really great apps for Roku, Apple TV, and numerous other platforms with all kinds of things to watch. And you can use an antenna to watch free TV, including PBS, rather easily. You can even record live TV using Plex PVR. It takes some work but it’s worth it.

这不一定有什么大不了的：PBS为Roku，Apple TV和许多其他平台提供了非常出色的应用程序，其中包含各种观看内容。而且，您可以使用天线轻松观看免费电视，包括PBS。您甚至可以使用Plex PVR录制直播电视。这需要一些工作，但值得。

But the appeal of services like Sling is having a single place to go for most TV watching, so not having PBS is bit of a drag for fans of the nonprofit network. Here’s hoping PBS can get those streaming rights squared away, and local public stations get on board.

但是，像Sling这样的服务的吸引力在于，大多数电视收看都只能在一个地方进行，因此，没有PBS对非营利网络的支持者来说有点拖累。希望PBS可以平息这些流媒体权利，并让本地公共电台加入。
