New content coming to Xbox Live will be from A&E Network (Dog the Bounty Hunter,King of Cars,Gene Simmons Family Jewels,Driving Force, and Criss Angel Mindfreak), National Geographic (Is It Real? and Taboo,21 Days to Baghdad, and Air Force One), action- and extreme-sports offerings from TotalVid.com, and Japanese anime from ADV Films.

Hollywood studio Warner Bros. will also be releasing a selection of direct-to-video titles on Xbox Live in high-definition simultaneous with their release on DVD; the first title will be Sublime, followed up later this year with the newly-produced Babylon 5: The Lost Tales.

microsoft claims downloads on Xbox Live had seen double-digit month-on-month growth, with a 400 percent increase in usership since the service made television and movie content available late in 2006.

Samsung may finally be working on Galaxy Buds that won’t fall out during a run

Samsung is reportedly working on another new Galaxy Buds design, this time with ear hooks that could keep them secure during workouts.

But that appears to be changing, as Samsung experiments with designs its rivals have embraced for years. Just a day after leaked renders offered an early look at the clip-on Galaxy Buds On, a new leak has shed light on another upcoming pair of Galaxy Buds targeted at gym-goers and athletes.
