Aereo Inc., the streaming video company that was found by the U.S. Supreme Court to be violating broadcasters’ copyrights, lost a new bid to be recognized as a cable-TV service.
Aereo will have to ask a federal district judge to determine whether it can change its business and operate like a cable company that pays networks for programming, the U.S. Court of Appeals in New York said in an order today.
