My guess is the iPhone 7 still doesn't support aptX, but that doc doesn't mean much since it hasn't been updated in years.

That's because Android itself supports HLS (although barely).

If you subscribe through the iOS app, Apple gets 30% of the subscription. That 30% drops to 15% after a year. You also can't advertise signing up for the subscription outside of the app.

But remember that the 85/15 split only occurs after a year, so Spotify would still need to charge more. I also don't know if the app store is flexible enough to lower the customer's price after that year cut goes into affect

I have been researching mazdas (CX-5) lately and they do get updates to the info/nav system. I think I read there is a crashing problem in v.51 or something, but its fixed in v.55. Not the same as tesla, but better than others.

I don't think the flaws in phone gap and other tools are things that Mozilla can fix, at least not without support from Google/Apple, who really have no incentive to help.

I disagree that appealing to high end watch enthusiasts is Apple's goal with these videos. Apple creates these type of videos for almost every product they sell. Take a look at the new macbook video and you will see the same kind of th

I am not defending carriers here. I just wanted to point out that Apple's approach isn't perfect either.

Except for 8.0.1 which hosed cell service for everyone. However, Apple was able to pull the update within hours and release a fix the next day.

I would say this year would probably be around around 4-5 weeks, with a 1 week and a 2 week break mixed in there plus a bunch of random days off. This is a ways off, but in Jan 2016 I will probably be taking even more, because I have a 3 we

Even post 4.0 it isn't super reliable. Basic playback of HLS works, but we have had issue seeking, pausing for long periods of time and resuming, etc. I wouldn't be surprised if things like WebVTT(Subtitles), ID3 tags and other
