Before Apple Music even launched on iOS I knew there would be a difficulty in finding a way to balance the iTunes Store, Apple Music, and a user’s current music library. What I never expected was how long it would take for Apple to begin addressing the issues that were introduced. The most exasperating part of Apple Music on iOS has to be searching for video content. Nearly every time I search for a specific video (music video or otherwise), I end up getting frustrated and just head to iTunes on my computer instead....

In an interview with Variety, Pandora Internet Radio CEO Roger Lynch says he wants to build the “podcast genome project” and help podcasters monetize shows more easily. Branching out from strictly streaming music to also streaming shows should help make Pandora further evolve into a more modern entertainment platform....

It may be the most notorious of the Star Wars prequel trilogy, but there’s no question that The Phantom Menace has gotten a bad wrap. The time has finally come to admit the truth, and accept that the REAL story of Star Wars begins in Episode 1… but you won’t realize it if you only watch the movies. The movie may not be flawless, as a low point in both large-scale action and momentum....

Though Pixar has been releasing solid animations since the creation of its first feature film in 1995, Toy Story, the 2010s was a particularly successful decade for the film studio. Defined as the years between 2010 and 2019, Pixar created a series of fun sequels and creative originals during this time. Because of this, we’re here to look at the best of the decade now. Rather than ranking the films ourselves, however, we’ll be turning to IMDb for answers....

Over the last several weeks, we’ve learned quite a bit about Apple’s plans for a new low-end “iPhone SE 2.” Much of the news comes from reliable Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, who predicts that the iPhone SE 2 will launch during the first quarter of 2020. The iPhone SE 2, however, is not the iPhone SE followup that many fans have been wanting. What do you think of the rumored details?...

A large part of the issue with the Cambridge Analytica scandal was that the Facebook data obtained by the company didn’t just come from those who clicked through to the survey, but also their Facebook friends. That, says a WSJ report, is a growing issue. In a hypothetical example, Prof. de Montjoye’s group reported that if just 1% of cellphones in London were compromised with malware, an attacker would be able to continuously track the location of more than half the city’s population …...

So-called cord-cutting – people who give up their cable TV subscriptions in favor of streaming content over the web – is growing in popularity. Mobile TV viewing on tablets is increasingly common. All of which makes me wonder whether we’re witnessing the beginning of the end of live TV … ? I should perhaps declare a personal bias here: I haven’t owned a television for years. Divvying up the property during a divorce, my ex-wife kept the TV set and buying a new one got added somewhere down towards the bottom of my to-do list....

Last night, millions tuned in live to witness the 89th annual Academy Awards ceremony, more commonly referred to as simply The Oscars. As usual, the event was a star-studded affair, brimming with A-list talent from both in front of and behind the camera. First time host Jimmy Kimmel stepped up to the Oscars plate, and by most accounts did pretty well, despite his self-deprecating jokes about not being asked back. One particularly memorable bit even involved Kimmel surprising an unsuspecting group of tourists by bringing them into the actual ceremony....
