I stopped watching this idiot a long time ago, after one video, it's sad I still have to read about his useless test's on various forums 😡
He's anti Apple with an agenda and his tear downs have absolutely no use for consumers!
What surprises me is that there are still people that watch his teardown's 😳.....what can be said about them?

Best article I've seen on VP.
The guy has vision and gets it, unlike the majority of morons, who haven't got a clue and can't get past the cost.

150 native apps is a lot for a brand new platform, how many do you want?
I agree with another post on here, it's all negative from the tech press and not very informative....it's actually pathetic 😡
 will sell as many as they can produce!

I was a big fan, however more and more info coming out, that VP is quite complicated to order and set up, which could be a bigger problem on future sales.
The lower quality of P3 and screen mirroring is also likely to put a lot of customers off, including myself when it's launched in the UK 😏
However we'll see what the user experience is and the reviews from a couple of reviewers that matter, because sadly there aren't many.

AppleInsider said:

Following the end of the Epic Games vs Apple case, the "Fortnite" developer will be required to pay Apple over $73 million in legal fees.

Still from the Epic Games parody of Apple's "1984" ad

The three-year legal battle between Epic Games and Apple fizzled out on January 16, 2024, as the Supreme Court simply declined to hear appeals from either side. With the case concluded, however, Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers has ruled that Epic Games owes Apple $73,404,326 in legal fees.

As spotted by GamesFray, that is actually a discount rate.

#Apple wants #EpicGames to reimburse $73 MILLION AND COUNTING (the dispute isn't over yet) in litigation expenses. Apple says it's spent $82,971,401 defending against that case, adjusts it to $81,560,362, then deducts 10% as Epic prevailed on 1 of 10 counts $73,404,326.

So Apple reports having spent $82,971,401 in legal fees, and for unclear reasons adjusts that to $81,560,362. The $73,404,326 figure is then a 10% discount for Epic having won 1 of its 10 counts.

That $73 million is not the final figure, though. The court's "Notice of Motion" has set a date of March 24, 2024, for a hearing regarding the fee, "plus additional amounts Apple is incurring during this ongoing litigation, under the indemnification provision of the Developer Program License Agreement."

As spotted by iMore, this indemnification stems from how Epic Games breached the developer agreement it had with Apple when it tried offering its own alternative payment system in August 2020.

That was the start of what Epic Games originally portrayed as a reaction to Apple removing "Fortnite" from the App Store, but then later admitted had instead been a long-planned campaign intended to force third-party stores on iOS.
