In this episode of CNET Update:
- Get a quick explanation of how Aereo works and why the U.S. Supreme Court ruled the TV-streaming service to be illegal. The ruling not only affects Aereo's future, but it could also impact other cloud services.
- If Aereo can't find a new way to survive, cable cord-cutters will need to rely on their own digital antenna to watch live broadcast networks. There are a few good over-the-air DVRs to record live broadcast TV. Mohu Channels is a new antenna product that offers a channel guide to combine free broadcast stations with apps and a Web browser, but it doesn't record shows.
- Apple cut the prices of it's iPod Touch line, and also upgraded the 16 GB model to include a camera and more color options.
