All Systems Go? No

摘要

We think investor barry diller had it right the first time when he signaled that a Supreme Court decision against Aereo was essentially the death knell for the service, which took a creative but ultimately crooked path to delivering TV station signals online. But fans of zombie shows know it's hard to keep a good body down. Aereo is trying to get the courts to believe it is actually a cable system subject to a blanket license, arguing that, like cable and satellite operators, it delivers a public performance. Of course, that Aereo argument comes after the company insisted in the courts up to and including the Supreme Court oral argument that it was not delivering a public performance.
