The death knell has finally sounded for the little re-broadcaster company Aereo. It was always a David and Goliath story from the beginning, but in this case, Goliath won out. The trend setting company may have lost the decision to operate, but may have in the process opened up more streaming content for cord-cutters as a side benefit. Aereo filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy this week.
Aereo tried to come up with other legal arguments. None of them proved sufficient. In the end, Aereo decided that it wasn't worth pursuing the case any further.
