科技的日新月異，使人們能夠享受取得著作的便利性，這是前人所無法想像的，且今日網際網路無所不在，人們可以在任何地方下載著作，無論是否經過權利人之授權，這種方式卻威脅著傳統的無線電視公司。
電視產業不斷地改變，隨著網路的影音模式越來越盛行，使得有線電視業者也開始嘗試著提供網路收看的服務，這也引發著作權法如何與新興科技達成平衡的問題，過去法院與國會在1976年遭遇過此問題，如今又面臨的相同的難題。
在美國American Broadcasting Cos., Inc. v. Aereo, Inc.案中，最高法院提出「相似於有線電視」(Look-Like-Cable-TV)標準，認為Aereo公司再傳輸訊號之行為，相似過去有線電視業者之行為，也為1976年著作權修法所欲規範之行為，因此最終最高法院以6-3宣判Aereo侵害權利人之權利。
本研究欲以「相似於有線電視」(Look-Like-Cable-TV)標準為研究標的，首先，將藉Aereo案判決理由、不同意見、以及有線電視相關案例之回顧，釐清在本標準之內容，再審視「相似於有線電視」標準對雲端視聽應用服務之影響。

Living in an age of unprecedented technological development, people enjoy the convenience to access copyright work that our forefathers could hardly image.
By the internet, people can easily download copyright content everywhere, with or without the permission of the copyright holders. This threatens the traditional business models of aging corporations like the major broadcasters.
TV industry as we know it has changed. As internet TV becomes more popular, cable TV providers try to provider live and on-demand programs which are accessible over the internet. It raises the issue how copyright law should adapt with new technology. The courts and Congress faced the issue in 1976, now they face the issue again.
In the case of Aereo, the Supreme Court provides a rule of Looks-Like-Cable-TV. Aereo retransmits signal just like cable TV used to do. And US Congress amended the Act in 1976 to bring this activities of cable systems within the scope. In a 6-3 decision by the Supreme Court, the Supreme Court concludes that Aereo infringes plaintiff’s public performance right.
This study focus on the rule of Looks-Like-Cable-TV. In order to understand the rule, we will discuss about the rule by reviewing the backgrounds of Cable TV and some cases. Then, we will use the rule to find the influence of remote storage digital video recorder (RS-DVR) and cloud storage services.
