The world hates change, yet it is the only thing that has brought progress.
--Charles Kettering, inventor, entrepreneur, innovator & philanthropist
A little over three years ago, our team embarked on a journey to improve the
consumer television experience, using technology to create a smart, cloud-based
television antenna consumers could use to access live over the air broadcast
television.
On ednesday, the !nited "tates "upreme Court reversed a lo#er court
decision in $avor o$ Aereo, dealing a massive setback to consumers.
As a result o$ that decision, our case has been returned to the lo#er Court. e

and map out our next steps. %ou #ill be able to access your cloud-based antenna
