Aereo is (or was, after today's ruling) a service that would essentially rent a small, dime-sized HD antenna and DVR to a subscriber for a monthly fee and allow the subscriber to watch over the air HD programming on the device of the consumer's choice. Aereo's argument was that it was just providing an easier way for people to do what they could already do for free. They got sued by the broadcasters, and today the US Supreme Court ruled in favor of the broadcasters.

It had rolled out in a few larger cities and I was hoping to be able to give it a shot eventually. Now it will probably go under. Too bad.
