Apple has increasingly been encouraging app developers to switch to a subscription model, rather than a one-off purchase cost or in-app purchases to unlock features. It’s now continuing this push with a new video on its developer site … The appeal for developers is obvious: subscriptions generate the holy grail of tech businesses, recurring income.

He went above and beyond to get who and what we wanted, no matter the cost. But over time, he became incredibly likable and his many quirks went from being annoying to endearing. Even so, he was the only loftmate to frequently donate to the “douchebag jar”, as they dubbed it....

In October of last year, Google officially unveiled the Nexus Player, the set-top box with Nexus branding and running Android TV. When it did, Google also tagged it with a $99 price tag, making it just another entry into the set-top box market with plenty of competition. Google generally keeps the prices for items within its online store the same from launch to end of life (consider the original G Watch, which was priced at $230 for an almost ridiculous amount of time), but it seems to be changing its views a little bit with the Nexus Player....

The loophole seems to be a SS7 flaw in the architecture of the signalling system which is devised to allow mobile phone roaming across telecom providers.
