  • Google's Gmail, other services let third parties read user emails, report says

    When those Google people chant "do no evil" over and over like a mantra, it has an effect. It plants it in them that they really should be doing evil.

    Google tried to kill iPhone.  Does it get more evil than that?

  • More than 75% of Nintendo's $60M Super Mario Run global revenues came from iOS

    So Apple made 30% of 45 million, or somewhere around $15 million. On one title. And without any significant marginal cost.

    Brilliant!

  • Apple's mini 18W USB-C charger may be real after all

    Why should Apple give these away for free when they can make a good margin selling them? I guess they think that they will sell enough of additional iPhone to make up the profit and even make some more.

  • Five reasons to not buy the Amazon Fire TV Cube

    kenh26 said:
    Obviously  being Apple iTunes based I think you are missing a lot of the positives and downgrading the Fire/Cube as a result 

    Amazon Prime includes a huge range of FREE 4K original content plus a ton of pay to view 4K content 

    Apple iTunes/Apple TV 4K includes zero free 4K content - everything in apple TV/iTunes is paid for content 

    If you are an Amazon Prime subscriber then you get all that original and some third party content free. 

    I think if you are going to compare Apple TV to Amazon Fire you should do that on a cost vs cost basis. So if I pay for Amazon prime TV that 4K content can I get for $100 a year (£80 here in the UK) vs what I would get from iTunes. There is no equivalent subscription on iTunes so no direct comparison is available.

    So if you compare the included 4K content on Amazon vs the cost of paying for every single movie or TV programme on iTunes, then Amazon has a much cheaper option 

    I have no axe to grind but I do think that if you are comparing devices it would be useful if you could compare the real cost of each rather than preferring the Apple TV option which in the end costs way more just because it is Apple
    Cost doesn't matter. Apple is better.

  • U.K. regulatory board backs Apple iPhone X claim of 'studio quality' portraits

    Professional photographers use iPhone to take professional quality photo shoots. Isn't that enough?

    Some people won't accept reality because they hate Apple.
