Streaming devices are a dime a dozen these days, with many of these plug-and-play gadgets costing less than $30. So, why would you ever want to spend close to $100 on the Amazon Fire TV Cube? The short answer is improved performance and storage, but it doesn’t hurt that Amazon’s flagship streamer is on sale this week, too. 

For a limited time, the Amazon Fire TV Cube can be yours for only $95 plus tax. This is a $45 markdown from the device’s $140 MSRP.

Why you should buy the Amazon Fire TV Cube

We tested the latest edition of the Amazon Fire TV Cube, and reviewer Phil Nickinson said, “The Amazon Fire TV Cube 2022 doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it does add some worthwhile features.”

Featuring a revamped design and a handy HDMI input for video passthrough to your TV, the latest Fire TV Cube rocks an octa-core processor and Wi-Fi 6E support, making it one of the fastest and most future-proofed streamers on the market. Amazon claims the Cube is two times as fast as its Fire TV Stick 4K Max, which we already thought operated at blistering speeds! 

The Fire TV Cube gives you access to a massive library of entertainment apps, including Netflix, Amazon Prime Video, Hulu, as well as hundreds of free live TV channels, games, and other web-connected features. The Fire TV Cube even doubles as an Alexa-powered smart speaker with a microphone and hands-free voice commands. 

We don’t know when the Cube is going to go back up in price, but it’s been up and down over the last several weeks. Cou

Tidal lays down the rules for AI music. I wish Spotify and everyone else would follow

Every week, the AI music problem is getting increasingly hard to ignore, especially for streaming platforms. Deezer reported that 44% of all new music uploaded to its platform daily is now AI-generated; that's almost half the songs.

Spotify relabeled and tightened its AI policies last September, while Apple Music announced a tagging approach in March. However, the subscription-based artist-first music platform Tidal has done something none of them did.

Netflix just got a whole lot more irritating if you share a screen in a household
Every profile will soon need its own email address, adding another hurdle for households that share a TV.

Netflix's password-sharing crackdown isn't over just yet. The streaming giant is now rolling out another change that could make shared household accounts a little more cumbersome, this time by asking every profile on an account to have its own email address. While the move isn't designed to stop families from sharing a subscription, it does add another layer of identity verification that many users probably weren't asking for.
