Has CBS pulled content from Google?

If you visit Google Video, you will notice that CBS has been hosting content there -- part of a partnership between the two companies announced at CES 2005.  Upon further inspection as one of my readers points out, when trying to view CBS content you are taken to a page saying the search returned no results.

If you visit Google Video, you will notice that CBS has been hosting content there -- part of a partnership between the two companies announced at CES 2005.  Upon further inspection as one of my readers points out, when trying to view CBS content you are taken to a page saying the search returned no results. 

The custom CBS page still exists and the icons for shows like Survivor Panama are on the main page, but for over 24 hours the videos are nowhere to be found.

Has CBS pulled its' own content?  If so, does this mean the end has come for Google and CBS?  It would be interesting to know if any of the Googling Google readers have purchased video from Google's video store.  Is CBS simply finding that their content isn't getting as much exposure as promised?

Let's keep our eyes on this one.  It could be something to watch or simply a bug that Google has been taking its time to fix.

Update:
It seems as though Google Video now has region based content filtering.  David Utter from WPN has confirmed that he is still able to see and purchase CBS content while in Canada, where I am, it appears that their videos have gone missing.
