The issue is that Aereo does not have to pay licensing fees to the broadcasters, though linear platform operators contribute billions in retransmission consent fees. Aereo allows subscribers to stream live broadcasts of TV&nbsp;channels on devices via miniature antennas, each one assigned to a different subscriber. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: small\"><span style=\"font-family: Verdana\">The court said: &quot;We conclude that Aereo&rsquo;s transmissions of unique copies of broadcast television programs created at its users&rsquo; requests and transmitted while the programs are still airing on broadcast television are not &lsquo;public performances&rsquo; of the Plaintiffs&rsquo; copyrighted works under Cablevision. As such, Plaintiffs have not demonstrated that they are likely to prevail on the merits on this claim in their copyright infringement action. Nor have they demonstrated serious questions as to the merits and a balance of hardships that tips decidedly in their favor.
