Aereo Battle Could Be Decided By the Supremes

Broadcasters could go to Supreme Court to shut down Aereo, according to Reuters.

Broadcasters could reportedly file a petition to the Supreme Court today to stop Aereo from operating due to alleged copyright violations.

The broadcasters, which include Disney's (DIS) ABC and CBS (CBS), have suffered a string of legal losses in their attempts to shut Aereo down. 

The company streams local-TV signals over the Web to subscribers for $12 a month using thousands of tiny broadcast antennae. The case could have ramifications for the business models of the broadcasters.
