Aereo avoids a preliminary injunction, keeps its antenna to internet TV service on the air for now

Aereo avoids a preliminary injunction, keeps its antenna to internet TV service on the air for now

While the battle between Aereo, a service that brings OTA TV broadcasts to the internet, and the broadcasters that began suing it before it even launched continues, a judge ruled today against a request for a preliminary injunction to shut it down. Reuters reports that the basis for the decision is that while the broadcasters demonstrated they faced "irreparable harm", Aereo too faced harm from a potential shutdown, and the balance did not tip heavily enough in the broadcasters favor.
