Internet gets cranky about Grammys livestream fail
Cord cutters trying to watch tonight's Grammys are probably itching to cut CBS as well.
Many of those that tried to log into the paid CBS All Access site to watch a live stream of the music event were met with an outage that has lasted at least half of the show as of this writing.

It's not clear how widespread or how long the outages lasted.
What made the whole issue even more enraging for some users is when the $5.99 per month CBS stream shut down, they went to find it on YouTube only to see that the network had blocked the event.
Obviously, people trying to watch the show on anything other than broadcast television were unhappy about all of this.

Good luck, cord cutters, and know that you are still the avant garde of future awards seasons.
