I just realized that the iPod touch was the last iOS device Apple sold with a 4-inch screen. I wonder if that means they’re preparing to drop support for both the iPod touch and the 1st-gen iPhone SE in iOS 15.

Quick reminder that the drop in Chromebook sales in the first quarter was the main blame for the PC market declining YOY in that quarter.

Yeah. The big drop in Chromebook sales over the first quarter is also more than enough to say that there isn’t that much demand for Chromebooks (much less premium Chromebooks) outside of the education sector (which seems to be fully or nearly fully penetrated at this point given the COVID tech boom).

Yeah, but the swipe might come back to haunt them in their appeal since Epic has now demonstrated that they technically found a way around both the App Store and Apple’s cut to get Fortnite to iOS players with this move without the caveat of a closed beta.

On the same day Starbucks pitched NFTs to its investors, those investors opened the Wall Street Journal to see a headline reading "NFT Sales are Flatlining."

They couldn’t have timed this any better.

At launch, Sonos Voice will work with Apple Music, Amazon Music, Pandora, Deezer, and the company’s own Sonos Radio. Spotify and Google’s YouTube Music aren’t yet on board.

I mean, given Sonos’ lawsuit with them, I would understand why Google wouldn’t want to allow YouTube Music to not work with this, but I’m surprised Spotify isn’t on board yet, especially since they got Amazon on board with something that competes with Alexa.

This is likely them trying to respond to YouTube trying out ads with Shorts. They think that YouTube was likely going to expand their Partner Program to Shorts, so they’re trying to beat them to the punch.
