No Infringement Intended Podcast

Is My Private TV Stream a Public Performance?


Listen Later

In this episode of No Infringement Intended, Rusty Close and Austin Padgett blend holiday‑episode nostalgia with the evolution of recording technology — from Betamax's fair‑use time‑shifting to Cablevision's cloud DVR — and explain why the Supreme Court deemed Aereo's antenna‑farm model a public performance that "looked like cable." By examining Justice Scalia's colorful Aereo dissent, they touch on how design choices can turn a platform from a tool into a performer, and what this decision could mean for modern platforms, such as AI.

No Infringement Intended, hosted by Rusty Close and Austin Padgett, is your go-to podcast for exploring the fascinating intersection of intellectual property and pop culture.
