A long retail relationship has turned sour

By Chris Welch

You can’t buy Bose products from Apple’s online store anymore. As spotted by 9to5Mac, headphones from Bose’s QuietComfort series and speakers including the SoundLink Mini and SoundLink III have completely vanished from Apple’s web storefront. A search for “Bose” now points you to refurbished Apple routers and other non-related items. Presumably Bose’s lineup will soon make an exit from retail stores, if products haven’t been pulled down from shelves already.

PlayStation 4 sales hit 10M in blow to Microsoft’s Xbox

Sony has sold over 10 million PlayStation 4 (PS4) devices, the company said on Tuesday, landing a major blow to console rival Microsoft’s Xbox One.

Jim Ryan, Sony Computer Entertainment Europe CEO, made the announcement at major gaming conference Gamescom in Cologne, amid a battle for dominance between consoles and mobile gaming.

Meanwhile, Microsoft’s Xbox One has sold around half of that at 5 million after the technology giant made an error with its strategy, according to analysts.

Microsoft has had an uphill struggle since it released its next generation games console to 13 markets including the U.K and U.S. in November 2013. The Xbox One was around $100 more expensive than the PS4 because it was bundled with Kinect, a camera that allows users to play interactive games.

Microsoft To Shut Down Xbox Entertainment Studios

By NELLIE ANDREEVA

This morning’s announcement by Microsoft Chief Executive Officer Satya Nadella of one of the largest layoffs in tech history, a plan to cut 18,000 jobs, triggered a whirlwind of speculation about the future of the fledgling Xbox Entertainment Studios. In a memo, Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft’s Xbox division and Microsoft Studios, just confirmed that the company will close the Entertainment Studios in the coming months.

Nancy Tellem, Jordan Levin and some of the XES team will stay on for some time to shepherd original programming already in production, including the documentary series about technology Signal to Noise and the Halo game franchise extensions, digital feature Halo: Nightfall and the Halo TV series, which will continue as planned with Microsoft’s 343 Industries and Amblin. Xbox also will continue to support and deliver interactive sports content like ‘NFL on Xbox.’ XBox’s app partnerships are not impacted.

Samsung’s Latest Galaxy Phone Is Built Like A Tank

Steve Kovach

You carry your smartphone with you just about everywhere, so there’s a decent expectation over its two-year life that you’ll drop it. Get it wet. Dribble some food on it.

Samsung’s answer to those everyday problems is the Galaxy S5 Active, a new smartphone that takes the company’s flagship Galaxy S5 phone and wraps it in a sturdy shell built to withstand drops, dings, spills, and scratches. It’s also water resistant and dustproof, meaning you can dunk it in shallow water for a few minutes and everything will still work perfectly.

Hugh Jackman Breezes Through CBS’s Ruthlessly Upbeat All-Star Tony Show

Posted on by

By Jeremy Gerard

About midway through CBS’s live telecast of the 68th Tony Awards on Sunday night, host Hugh Jackman told the audience at Radio City Music Hall that the first show he’d ever been cast in was Meredith Willson’s The Music Man. To prepare, in fact, he’d learned all eight parts to Rock Island,’ the opening number of that signature piece of syncopated Americana, and to prove it, he performed a minute or so, sprecht-singing all eight parts.

The first words are: Cash for the merchandise/Cash for the buttonhooks, which sounds like the beginning of an ode to Broadway, 2014. Then he ushered out LL Cool J and TI, and all three of them rapped “Rock Island,” which sounded a lot like Sesame Street, 1995. It was funny and toothless. Much the same can be said for the most breathlessly upbeat Tony broadcast in memory. Almost nothing memorable happened over the course of just over three hours of good cheer.

Jackman looked somewhat raffish and ragged of beard, as though he was coming from an audition for a revival of Sunday In The Park With George.

First GOTHAM trailer is out!

By Armando

Fox has released the first trailer for the upcoming Batman prequel tv series “Gotham.” The original trailer just aired tonight during 24: Live Another Day, and this extended version released online.

The trailer shows us a glimpse of McKenzie as Gordon, as well David Mazouz as a young Bruce Wayne. “I promise you, I will find the man who did this,” says McKenzie’s Gordon as he consoles Bruce amid what seem to be an aftermath of the death of Wayne’s parents.

Although the show takes place before Wayne becomes The Dark Knight, the trailer shows a collage of younger versions of iconic Batman villains such as Penguin, Catwoman, Riddler, and Poison Ivy early in their escapades.

Gotham stars Ben McKenzie in the lead role as Detective James Gordon, with Jada Pinkett Smith playing a gangster named Fish Mooney.

Gotham is scheduled to debut on Fox later this year.
