  • Apple security chief Thomas Moyer indicted in concealed firearm permit bribery case

    nikon1 said:
    “ Jensen reportedly managed to get Moyer to promise that Apple would donate 200 iPads, worth about $70,000, to the Sheriff's Office. Undersheriff sung also extracted from Chadha, the insurance broker, a "promise of $6,000 worth of luxury box seat tickets to a San Jose Sharks hockey game."

    In California, it is illegal to carry a concealed firearm without a CCW license that can cost between $200 and $400.

    So these 2 CLOWNS (Moyer & Chadha) risked their careers and wanted to avoid paying between $200 & $400 to legitimately get their CCW legally?  They should be imprisioned for pure greed and stupidity.

    What a pair of Morons!



    Reading comprehension is an amazing thing. For example it will let you understand that they weren’t trying to avoid the fees. The Sheriff wasn’t issuing CCW regardless if the fee was paid or not unless he got something in return. If I was you I will re-read the article again.

  • Short-form streaming platform Quibi to shut down [confirmed]

    Didn’t this thing make it to Apple TV a couple days ago? Yikes!

    This has a been a T-Mobile Tuesday freebie for a few weeks and I had no interest. 
    Less than a day after landing on Apple TV, Amazon Fire TV and Fire stick, and Android TV, Quibi will be shutting down services after all.

    It’s right there on the very first paragraph. Reading pass the headline isn’t that hard.

  • UK investigating whether Apple Music, Spotify, and others pay artists fairly

    There’s a lot of confusing and unclear statements in this article — even more than those pointed out by Gatorguy.
    While Apple has previously stated that over 70% of Apple Music revenues go to the artists, sharing those payments can mean that the recording artist themselves may only receive 13% of the per-stream total.
    What’s the difference between an “artist” and a “recording artist”? And what “sharing” is the author talking about here? And what formula transfers 70% to 13%?

    I think too much info has been left out or miss-quoted from the original source.
    After Apple and the other streaming platforms make a payout. That is further divided between the labels, publishers and artists. And the labels keep the largest cut and in cases where the artists had no streaming clause on their contract the label decides what if any they will pay. 

    In my opinion the major issue here are the labels not the streaming platforms.
