Layoffs At Last.FM Confirmed. Where Else Are Heads Rolling At CBS?

Today, CBS Interactive is laying off people across several of its properties, I've confirmed with the company. CBS is not saying which divisions or how many people are affected. It is positioning the layoffs as part of the integration process it began six months ago when it bought CNET for $1.8 billion. But it is not just the CNET businesses that are being cut. I've also confirmed that earlier today employees at social music site Last.FM were let go. CBS bought Last.fm in 2007 for $280 million . One source puts the number of layoffs at as high as 40 people, mostly from LAst.FM's London HQ, which has a total staff of 95 . A spokesperson for CBS Interactive says that number is inaccurate on the high side, but won't provide the correct number.
