‘Modern iPad’ Most Likely iPad With Face ID

According to the rumors, Apple is said to be working on an iPad with Face ID. Recently it was discovered that in the iOS 11.3 beta that there are references made to a “modern iPad”, but it is unclear as to what this means. Now it seems that there is growing evidence to suggest that the “modern iPad” is an iPad with Face ID.

In a tweet by Guilherme Rambo, it has been noted that when the iPhone X had yet to be launched, there were references talking about a “modern iPhone”, which ultimately resulted in the iPhone X with Face ID. If we were to follow that logic, a “modern iPad” would basically mean the same thing.

Of course it could really mean just about anything, but we wouldn’t put it past Apple to launch an iPad with Face ID. After all the company more or less shares its technology across its products, like bringing Touch ID to the iPad and eventually to the MacBook Pro. We also wouldn’t be surprised if Apple eventually brought Face ID onto the Mac.

So far Face ID has had some success in terms of it functioning as it should. There have been some complaints but nothing particularly outstanding. There are rumors claiming that Face ID will return to the iPhone this year where it could potentially be improved upon.

Streaming Services Will Now Have To Pay Songwriters An Extra 44%

In the music industry, making money can be a complicated process where selling an album doesn’t mean you as the artist gets to keep all of the profit. Barring differences in percentages, for the most part what happens when an album is bought is that a portion will go to the record label, and portion will go to the artist, and a portion will go to the publisher.

The publisher can sometimes represent the songwriter(s) of the album/song, which means when that this portion is split even further, resulting in the amount that songwriters getting being only but a fraction of the whole. However this will be changing over the next five years, as the Copyright Royalty Board (CRB) has announced (via Variety) a new ruling that will see streaming platforms pay songwriters an increase of 43.8% over the next five years.

While the boost in potential pay is great news for songwriters, it seems that this wasn’t exactly the deal that they wanted. Many have been pushing for a model which would pay them per stream of a song, which is how artists/record labels are being paid right now. This means that songwriters will be getting a direct stake in the success of a song, but we suppose this is a good place to start.

According to the President and CEO of the National Music Publishers’ Association David Israelite, “We are thrilled the CRB raised rates for songwriters by 43.8% – the biggest rate increase granted in CRB history. Crucially, the decision also allows songwriters to benefit from deals done by record labels in the free market. The ratio of what labels are paid by the services versus what publishers are paid has significantly improved, resulting in the most favorable balance in the history of the industry.”

Dual-SIM Samsung Galaxy S9 Rumored For Europe

For those who have more than one phone number, such as one for work and personal, carrying around two phones can be a bit of a hassle. This is because having two phones means having to buy an additional phones, juggling with multiple apps, chats, emails, and also having to charge two phones.

Carrying around a single device is a lot more convenient and efficient, which is why dual-SIM phones exist. Now if you were after a dual-SIM phone that packs a punch, you might be interested to learn that the upcoming Samsung Galaxy S9 could come in a dual-SIM variant. This possibility was revealed on none other than Samsung’s website where the model number SM-G960F/DS, where the “DS” stands for “dual-SIM”.

Of course given that Samsung did launch a dual-SIM Galaxy S8+ last year, it stands to believe that the company could continue that tradition this year, so it wouldn’t be a complete stretch of the imagination. Whether or not this dual-SIM version will be limited to the smaller Galaxy S9, or the larger Galaxy S9+, or maybe both phones remains to be seen.

However Samsung recently sent out invites to an event on the 25th of February which is presumably when they will be officially unveiling their new phones, so check back with us then for more updates.
