CBS is Greedy While neither have discussed the specifics of negotiations, Wall Street analysts and media industry insiders say CBS is seeking a long-term contract that would start at a price tag of close to $2 per-subscriber, per-month. Time Warner Cable has said it is willing to pay more for CBS but that the network is asking too much. "We feel like we should be paid for our programs," Moonves said. The deal is only for CBS-owned stations and not all CBS affiliates around the country. While Time Warner Cable has roughly 12 million subscribers across the nation, about 3 million would be affected by CBS stations going dark. Besides New York and Los Angeles, the other major market that will be impacted is Dallas.
