Apple's new photography tutorials are great. I think these could air on television. They are short, stylish and memorable. In a way, they remind me of the original iPhone commercials which were so effortlessly informative on using a totally new device.
Apple plans to announce Amazon Prime video’s impending arrive to the Apple TV App Store during the keynote at its annual Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC) on June 5 in San Jose, CA.
I have a Prime subscription for the two-day shipping, and I've only used the video service maybe twice. If it's not on Apple TV, I don't think to watch it.
CNBC:
Apple has acquired an app and sleep monitoring device called Beddit. Beddit has updated the privacy policy on its website to state that it has been acquired, although the terms of the deal are not yet clear. The previous page that linked to Beddit's Apple Watch applications appears to have been taken down.
I'd assumed Beddit was a sleep-tracking app like Sleep++, but it's also a connected device you place under your sheets. This allows it to gather a lot more data.
I'm interested in sleep tracking, but so far I've resisted buying a second Apple Watch to wear at night.
Chris Welch for The Verge:
The package costs either $14.99 with limited commercials for CBS content or $18.99 for no CBS ads at all. The Showtime side of things is commercial-free in both cases.
I get HD broadcast television over-the-air, so to my mind CBS is free. I happily pay for Netflix, and—off and on—Hulu and HBO, but paying for a broadcast network feels gross.
