Israeli firm ready to replace US rebroadcaster Aereo
Israeli company Vbox Communications offers a TV gateway that allows users to legally watch live broadcasts on their own private network. The companys solution is seen as an alternative to Aereo, which recently went out of business due to legal challenges. Vbox leases antennas instead of selling subscriptions, avoiding the legal issues faced by Aereo. The companys devices enable users to watch TV shows live or record them on a DVR, and can connect to free-to-air satellite, cable, and terrestrial TV sources. Vbox is currently selling its products in eight European countries and is popular in those markets. The company is trying to resolve issues to expand its offering to American TV viewers.
