Skynet Corp. can continue to maintain its Web site, in which homeowners in New Hampshire and elsewhere can list their houses for a fee, without a broker’s license.

U.S. District Magistrate Judge James Muirhead held March 31 that the site was covered under the media exception to a New Hampshire law, which requires any company that charges money or advertises real estate to have a license.
