Aereo’s innovative broadcast TV streaming service will be expanding to 22 more cities this year, according to a report from All Things D. The company announced this expansion at the same time as it dropped details on a new $38 million round of funding that’ll help finance this expansion. Now that the service is moving beyond New York City, Aereo also said that users will only be able to pull in local channels — so you won’t be able to get Chicago’s programming from Boston, for example. As for when the rollout will begin, Aereo says the first new cities will go live in late spring, though we’re not sure which cities will receive the service first.
