It may be that a court outside of Chicago has no jurisdiction since it's a local Chicago city law. It would have to be appealed to a State or Federal court with a claim that Chicago has overreached and doesn't have the authority to impose this tax at all, or at least not in the case of streaming by being in breach of State or Federal law, but by the sounds of it, that's unlikely.
