Shutterfly Photos Go DVD

By Digital Trends Staff August 10, 2005

Isn’t it a pain to have hundreds of photos online and no easy way to view them without an Internet connection? Online photo storage service Shutterfly has an idea to solve this problem as today they introduced their new PhotoShow DVD service.

The PhotoShow DVD service, said Shutterfly, will allow users to select up to 400 online photos and appropriate options to be saved as a multimedia slideshow on a DVD which Shutterfly burns and mails out. One of six styles can be selected to celebrate a special event, with further customization options allowing for such things as music, transitions, borders and end credits.

As a special introductory offer, Shutterfly said the DVDs would be $19.99 a pop through August 17. After that, the price goes up to $24.99.

Don’t bother sending back those final Netflix DVD rentals

Netflix final DVD envelope.

If for some reason you're still renting DVDs from Netflix and plan to keep doing so until that end of the service goes the way of the dinosaur on September 29, you can hold off on sticking the discs back in the mail. Netflix doesn't want them.

The "DVD Netflix" account on X (formerly known as Twitter) today clarified that "we are not charging for any unreturned discs after 9/29. Please enjoy your final shipments for as long as you like." It followed up the statement with a trio of emoji, as serious communications from serious companies tend to do.

Toss LG’s StanbyMe Go 27-inch suitcase TV in your car for $1,000

LG StanbyMe Go 27-inch touchscreen suitcase TV set up in the tailgate of a car.

Tired of streaming shows and movies on your 13-inch laptop when you're away from home? LG's StanbyMe Go might just be the answer you're looking for. It puts a 27-inch full HD LED touchscreen inside of a durable travel suitcase, along with a 20-watt speaker system and a three-hour rechargeable battery, so you can take your TV pretty much anywhere you travel. The StanbyMe Go is available for preorder only on LG.com later this month for $1,000, and units are expected to ship before the end of the month. If you're among the preorder customers, LG will also throw in a free LG Xboom 360 Bluetooth speaker, which it claims is a $300 value.

"Content viewing is no longer confined to the living room or even the home, but until now, consumers have had to sacrifice screen size in favor of portability," said David Park, LG's head of HE product marketing in a press release. "LG StanbyME Go makes the full-scale viewing experience travel-friendly and offers a versatile option for streaming, listening, remote working, and more."

Tidal’s awkward FLAC integration is going about as well as expected

Tidal app for iOS on an iPhone 14 showing now playing screen with Max quality track.

I had the chance to try out Tidal's new Max audio quality setting -- which integrates hi-res audio FLAC files into the streaming service's HiFi Plus subscription tier -- while it was still in beta. It seemed ham-fisted and poorly executed at best, but betas often can be tweaked before seeing their final release. That's the point of beta testing. So I held out hope that Tidal would fix the problems before rolling Max out to the world.

Now that Tidal has opened the FLAC floodgates — the feature is live for all — that doesn't appear to be the case.
