Abso-fricking-lutely.
Now in practice, shitholes like Sports Illustrated (back in the day) probably got around it, but it's is illegal. BMI and ASCAP are agencies that collect.
The thing you guys are missing: what happens to the content when content creators don't get paid?
If Aereo can broadcast royalty free and undercut networks, who is going to generate content.
Aereo is parasitic. It can't survive without content providers providing free content.

My family had a family owned restaurant in the 90's and we paid monthly royalty fees to play Nat King Cole and Michael Bolton type music during business hours. I forgot the name of the organization we paid the fee. It wasn't that much. Like $10 per month.
