PS5 snub shows just how little Sony cares about India

Sony hasn't shared PlayStation 5 availability or pricing info for India, while Xbox Series X pre-orders have sold out in the country. Sony kicked off pre-orders of the PS5 last week, with the console set to hit retail availability starting November 12. There are two editions: the regular PlayStation 5 costs $499 , and the PS5 Digital Edition is up for pre-order for $399 . Sony is barely able to sustain demand for pre-orders in most markets, with both the PS5 and PS5 Digital Edition sold out everywhere. But there's a bigger problem in India, where Sony hasn't even bothered to share PS5 pricing or availability details. Aside from a listing on Amazon India that says the PS5 will be available "late 2020" and lets interested customers register interest in the console, there has been little in the way of information regarding Sony's next-gen console. It's clear that the PS5 will be delayed in India, but for Sony to not reveal any details is inexcusable

New research shows European startups are spending drastically less on a US launch, for the same gains

It used to be the case that in order to scale glocally, European companies needed to spend big on launching in the US to achieve the kind of growth they wanted. That usually meant re-locating large swathes of the team to the San Francisco / Bay Area, or New York. New research suggests that is no longer the case, as the US has become more expensive, and as the opportunity in Europe has improved. This means European startups are committing much less of their team and resources to a US launch, but still getting decent results. That said, European startups will still look to the US for exits, as European corporates remain laggards in innovation. New research by Index Ventures today reveals that less than 1 in 5 (50 out of 275) European tech firms are choosing to relocate their engineering base as they expand to the US, in stark contrast with the general strategy 10 years ago.
 Instead, says Index, Europe’s top tech start-ups are managing to get the growth gains they need about of the US

We've got all of the details on how to live stream La Liga games online during the new season no matter where you are in the world. The global pandemic forced an unusual end to the last season with an unscheduled break pushing fixtures into the summer months. On the teams' return to play, then-league leaders Barcelona crumbled under pressure allowing rivals Real Madrid to surge forward and claim a record 34th La Liga title win. The league only played to completion in mid-July with Europa League and Champions League football continuing in August for several La Liga teams meaning a truncated pre-season break ahead of the new season. Leganés, Mallorca, and Espanyol were relegated last term and have been replaced by Huesca, Cadíz, and Elche this year. Similar to the Premier League , the 2020/21 La Liga season kicked off on the weekend of September 12, around fiv

How to watch French Open 2020 tennis live stream

Will Rafael Nadal notch up a 13th title at Roland-Garros, and Serena Williams claim her 24th Grand Slam? Read on for full details on how to watch French Open 2020 tennis, no matter where you are in the world. This year's installment of the iconic clay court tournament looked set to be a casualty of the covid-19 pandemic, but having been shunted from its usual May position in the tennis calendar, the grand slam is now set to take place across late September and early October. The tournament will mark Novak Djokovic's return to action following his humiliating US Open disqualification for striking a line judge with the ball, while 2017 finalist Andy Murray has been given a wild card - marking his first appearance at Roland-Garros in three years.

Apple TV+ Wins Its First Emmy With Billy Crudup in 'The Morning Show'

Apple TV + had 18 nominations for this evening's virtual Primetime Emmy Awards, and the fledgling streaming service managed to come away with one win thanks to Billy Crudup's award for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Drama Series for his performance in "The Morning Show."

Original Content podcast: ‘Wireless’ shows off Quibi’s Turnstyle technology

“Wireless” is probably the best showcase so far for Quibi ’s Turnstyle technology. That’s the technology that allows the streaming video app to switch seamlessly between landscape and portrait mode depending on the orientation of your phone. With other Quibi shows, you’re essentially getting two views of the same footage — but with “Wireless” (which is executive produced by Steven Soderbergh), you’re switching between traditional cinematic footage (in landscape) and a view of the protagonist’s phone (in portrait). In this bonus episode of the Original Content podcast, director Zach Wechter told me that he and his co-writer Jack Seidman wrote the initial script — about a college student played by Tye Sheridan who gets trapped in the snow after a car crash, with only his iPhone to save him — before they decided on the phone-centric format. But when they heard about Turnstyle, “It just felt like a match made in heaven that would allow us to facilitate this idea.” I wondered whether t

NFL live stream: How to watch every Week 2 NFL game from anywhere

Unlike other major sports leagues such as the NBA, NHL, MLB and MLS which were forced to postpone their seasons or change their schedules due to the pandemic, the NFL got lucky because its 2019-20 season ended back in February. The league is set to resume play on Thursday, September 10 and we have all the details on how you can stream all 250+ games this season. The 2020-21 NFL season is already shaping up to be a bit different than past seasons since all of the preseason games have been cancelled. Instead of playing exhibition games, NFL teams started their training camps late and they will now go directly from training to week 1 of the regular season. Thankfully though, the schedule for the NFL's regular season remains unchanged and each team will play 16 games during a 17-week period. As usual, there will also be Bye Weeks where each team will get a week off between weeks 5 and 13 to rest and recover before returning to the fray. Bye Weeks are not determined by the teams th

How to watch Chicago Bears vs New York Giants live stream

While neither of these sides were unfancied going into the new campaign, both showed encouraging signs in their opening matches in week 1 - read on for full details on how to watch Chicago Bears vs New York Giants, no matter where you are in the world. While slow to get going, the Bears made a spirited rally against the Detroit Lions, with quarterback Mitchell Trubisky leading the way in their fourth-quarter comeback. It marked the first time that the Bears had scored 21 points in the fourth quarter since 2014, but coach Matt Nagy will be expecting his side to get into gear much earlier at home on Sunday. Sunday's game sees the Giants head back to Soldier Field, where they lost 19-14 last November. That match saw the Giants lead at halftime, 7-3, but then conceded 16 unanswered points in the third quarter. While they ultimately succumbed 16-26 to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday, the Giants nevertheless held their own for large parts of the game against one of the league&
