#Google paid 1 billion dollars to #Apple for search, that’s cheap. They can’t afford to repeat the same screw-up as the deal with maps.
Of course #YouTubeRed competes with #Netflix, #Amazon, etc. Wait till they compete with Warner Bros, Disney, etc. http://gizmodo.com/report-youtube-red-might-become-more-of-a-netflix-comp-1745882116
Maybe 5GB is the sweet spot, #Microsoft should have just copied it from #Apple rather than angering their users. Will #Google be next?
#WesternDigital buying #SanDisk is a great move to keep them ahead of #Seagate for a while. Will Seagate buy Samsung or Intel SSD business?
#Samsung #GearS2 will not be running Android Wear but their own Tizen OS. Can’t they just play nice with Google and fight Apple together?
@heyAdamCrouch It’s a fight between alibaba and tencent. Hard to say who is right or wrong, etc. http://www.wantchinatimes.com/news-subclass-cnt.aspx?id=20131126000046&cid=1202
#Alibaba’s fight with #Tencent continues. https://x.com/TelegraphTech/status/630681486077722624
#Apple wins by having better products, not by first to market. #AppleMusic launched in 100+ countries, their competitors just can’t do it.
Who’s copying who? Does it matter? #Apple renaming Passbook to Wallet, #Google splitting payment function out from Wallet as Android Pay.
#GooglePhotos is a great idea like #Picasa. In a few years time, when it still doesn’t catch on, it will be rebranded as #AndroidPhotos.
#Xiaomi raised $1.1B at $45B valuation. Worth 3 times more than #Lenovo? 2015 will be interesting. Handset market will be so competitive.
#Apple is the only global success story I can think of in mobile handset industry in the past decade. Can #Xiaomi really be the next one?
