Aereo might fail, but someone who provides a better way to consume TV will succeed sooner than later and these media clowns will be left with no choice but conform.

No one likes the current cable TV model and no one wants to use a dozen different apps/websites to stream.

They almost had something with Hulu, but they seem intent on screwing that up too.

It’s going to be hilarious if Apple conquers the living room and throws these fools in shackles on a yoke right next the record companies.

I would disregard most of the LA Times piece – the LAT is a long-term lapdog for the interests of the Big Six media content oligopoly (Warners, Paramount, Disney, NBC-Universal, Sony, and Fox) which control 80%+ of all content and content distribution channels in the US.

Any innovation that endangers their profit-optimizing practices will be attacked by the LAT.

Aereo may fail for lack of demand, but the business case for Aereo it is not absurd.

Basically, Aereo can conceivably bring *any content* airing *anywhere* in the US (over the air) to any Aereo subscriber.

*That* is a much stronger content competitor to cable (the Big Six’s true cash cow) than there has ever been in the past.
