Aereo and FilmOn X stream television programming over the Internet for a monthly subscription fee. Aereo and FilmOn''s technology permits subscribers to watch both live broadcast television in addition to already-aired programming. Their use of this development in technology has triggered multiple lawsuits from broadcasting companies alleging copyright violations. These cases reveal not only multiple interpretations of copyright law and its application to new and developing technologies but also a possible loophole in the law, which some have accused Aereo and FilmOn of exploiting.
