With so many of us asked to stay at home these days, having something to do to pass the time is becoming ever more critical. One of the ways many are turning to pass the time are streaming services, and many of these services are offering some great deals to attract new customers.

One of the more popular services out there is Sling TV, and if you act right now, the company is offering a free Amazon Fire TV Stick along with $10 off your first month when you prepay for two months of its service. Altogether, that’s a $100 value for just $50 if you select one of the company’s basic packages, or a $130 value for only $80 if you choose its top-tier package.

It’s common for streaming services to offer some type of free streaming equipment for new customers to attract them to their services, but it’s less common to see a discount on service combined with a free streaming stick or set-top box like Sling’s offering. As a result, we recommend you take advantage of this deal as soon as possible.

Sling’s labeling this as a “limited-time deal,” so act fast as this promotion could end at any time.

Sling offers three packages, each targeted toward different viewers, starting at $30 per month. Sling Orange offers one device stream and 30-plus channels along with a 10-hour DVR. This package is more entertainment and family-focused and includes channels like the Disney Channel, ESPN, Freeform, and Investigation Discovery.

Sling Blue, on the other hand, is more news-focused, with all major news networks, local channels in select markets, local NBC sports networks, although it lacks the previous channels of Sling Orange. Of course, you can select both packages for $45 a month, giving you access to the complete lineup that Sling offers.

We recommend the combo package, as it’s a great deal for what you get (especially with the ability for additional concurrent streams), and there are channels on both packages which we think you’ll want. Overall, $45 per month isn’t too bad, either.

No matter what package you select for this promotion, the $10 off promotion and the free Fire TV stick applies.

Your next song could soon carry an AI warning label, and the music industry is all for it
AI isn't the problem anymore. Knowing it's AI is.
AI tag imagined with AI

The music industry's battle with artificial intelligence is entering a new phase. After spending the past two years fighting AI companies in court and pushing back against unauthorized training on copyrighted music, record labels are now turning their attention to something far simpler: transparency. A coalition representing major record labels, artists, and music organizations wants streaming services such as Spotify and Apple Music to clearly tell listeners when a song has been created with artificial intelligence.

The proposal, first reported by The Wall Street Journal, comes as AI-generated music becomes increasingly difficult to distinguish from songs created by human artists. Rather than banning AI music altogether, the industry is arguing that listeners deserve to know what they're hearing before they hit play.

Your YouTube playlists can now become actual TV shows, but there’s a catch you need to know
YouTube just gave Partner Program creators the episodic infrastructure that Netflix has been using to keep audiences hooked for years.
Electronics, Mobile Phone, Phone

YouTube just gave its creators a tool that streaming platforms take for granted. I’m talking about the ability to structure content as proper episodic TV. 

If you're in the YouTube Partner Program and you’ve been organizing your videos into playlists while praying that the algorithm and your audience notice, then Shows is the upgrade you've been waiting for.

Featuring a new dynamic driver, high passive noise isolation, and a stage-ready design, the IER-M500 targets live performers.
Sony IER-M500 Launched Featured in use by artists

Sony is officially back in the professional in-ear monitor (IEM) space. The company has announced the IER-M500, a new pair of stage-focused earphones designed for everyone from aspiring musicians to seasoned performers. Rather than chasing features like active noise cancellation or spatial audio for casual listening, the IER-M500 is built with one goal in mind: helping artists hear themselves clearly during live performances.

Built for the stage, not the daily commute
