Snapchat is adding TikTok-like AR music lenses
08:50pm, Monday, 15'th Nov 2021 Engadget
Snap has signed a music licensing deal with Sony Music Entertainment. The partnership means Snapchat users will have access to songs from Sony artists. With todays announcement, the company has licensing deals with all the major music labels. And Snap plans to take advantage of the milestone by launching new AR music filters. Sometime soon, the company says it will release a set that will feature pre-selected songs embedded in the filter. Additionally, theyll be ones that allow you to make it look like you''re singing along to a song and yet another set that adds you and a friend to an animated music video. In short, Snapchat is becoming more like TikTok and Instagram. Youll know youre about to add one of the new filters if theres a musical note next to it. You dont have to look far to find out why Snap is doing this. Since launching the Sounds feature last year, the company notes its users have created more than 1.2 billion videos, leading to nearly 77 billion views. In other words, music has been great for Snapchats engagement metrics.
Microsoft''s Phil Spencer reflects on 20 years of Xbox
05:08pm, Monday, 15'th Nov 2021 Axios
Two decades in, the unexpected consequences of some of the Xbox’s boldest innovations nudged Microsoft to break away from its initial “gamer” marketing push towards an inclusive approach to gaming, Xbox boss Phil Spencer tells Axios. Why it matters: Xbox turns 20 today, offering a moment to reflect on what Microsoft has achieved within console gaming and where it may go in the next 20. Spencer discussed Xbox’s history — the good and bad — with Axios during a recent video chat. (It began with Spencer dismissing an incoming call from Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella. “I told him I’m doing an interview,” he said.) Microsoft’s Xbox journey started with the first Xbox on Nov. 15, 2001, and followed with the successful Xbox 360 (2005), the doomed Xbox One (2013) and the current well-received , but supply-constrained, Xbox Series consoles (2020). Xbox initially turned heads with games such as “ Halo ,” “ Forza ” and “ Gears of War .” It used Microsoft’s war chest to buy the makers of “Minecraft” in 2014 .
