CBS Sports app suffers Super Bowl outage on Apple TV – The Verge
Despite our being just minutes into tonight’s big game, Apple TV’s CBS Sport app is enduring streaming issues preventing fans from seeing the game online.
CBS has confirmed it knows about the issue, and insists it’s working on a fix:
@gm_richards We are aware of stream issues for 3rd Gen Apple TV. Our team is diligently working on a fix. Thank you for your patience.

However, the issue also seems to be affecting users on Xbox, Android, and those watching the game in-browser:
The @CBSSports browser live stream, Xbox One, and Apple TV apps are all down/unresponsive. I can’t get CBS OTA, either. Lame!

It’s not clear if those outages are widespread, but it seems CBS has its work cut out for it as far as getting football fans back to the stream.
