Aereo, the online television company broadcasters despise, is hitting the Motor City.
The company will bring its internet age antenna technology to the Detroit metropolitan area on October 28. The announcement follows its expansion earlier this year to such cities as Boston, Atlanta, Miami, Salt Lake City, Houston and Dallas. The company said earlier that it plans to offer its service in more than 20 cities by the end of 2013.
Broadcasters have gone to court to prevent Aereo from gaining ground and market share, with networks like CBS, ABC, FOX and NBC suing the company and charging it with copyright violations.
