Why does "CSI" use songs by "The Who" for every show?

I guess they just like it. I also guess you're watching repeats. If you go to the applicable website you can get liner notes for all the musicians featured on the show. There's many.

Acquiring the legal rights to play a song during a TV broadcast can be very expensive, so TV producers make deals with record studios in order to get special discounts. Sometimes that means they only get to play songs by specific musicians to get that discount.

Some would argue that "The Who" fits practically any show! And seriously, I think "The Who" captures the same kind of atmosphere as CSI.
