*** Apple Spells Out iTunes Radio Terms For Record Labels ***
<http://blogs.wsj.com/digits/2013/06/26/apple-spells-out-itunes-radio-terms-for-record-labels/>
Hannah Karp And Jessica E. Lessin, Wall Street Journal


> Ahead of its launch of an online radio service Apple circulated terms to independent record labels last week, many of them more generous to the music companies than what rival Pandora Media currently pays.

> During iTunes Radio’s first year, Apple will pay a label 0.13 cents each time a song is played, as well as 15% of net advertising revenue, proportionate to a given label’s share of the music played on iTunes. In the second year, that bumps up to 0.14 cents per listen, plus 19% of ad revenue.

Allen Pike


> The hairlines and flourescent colours are trendy and easy to copy. On the other hand, bringing to life these blurs, animations, and dynamics with HTML and JavaScript isn’t yet possible. You need the latest hardware and the most efficient software to make something feel like this. Further, you need thoughtful APIs so developers can take it to its full potential. In short, the browser vendors have their work cut out for them.

*** Can Apple Read Your iMessages? Ars Deciphers “End-to-end” Crypto Claims ***
<http://arstechnica.com/security/2013/06/can-apple-read-your-imessages-ars-deciphers-end-to-end-crypto-claims/>
Dan Goodin, Ars Technica


> But even if you don't store iMessages in iCloud, there are almost certainly other ways Apple could decrypt them if it wanted to. That's because Apple acts as a directory look-up service that iMessage apps can use to find the public key belonging to the person receiving a message. The integrity of the entire system rests on Apple distributing the right public key for the right person. The ease in resetting passwords already suggests Apple has little trouble generating new user credentials. And there doesn't appear to be any warnings or dialogs displayed when the public key of a receiver has changed.

<http://www.macworld.com/article/2043020/apple-details-new-ios-7-features-for-business-education.html#tk.rss_all>
Dan Moren, Macworld


> For example, App Store license management gives users at both businesses and education institutions the ability to provide apps to users via Apple’s App Store Volume Purchase Program, while letting the organization maintain control over app licenses; that way, the organization can revoke the apps at a later date, or reassign them to other students and employees. Personal Apple IDs can be enrolled in the program, and don’t have to be provided to the business or school.

Janet Maslin, New York Times


> Rebecca Lee shows how far she can push the boundaries of so-called civilized behavior by opening “Bobcat,” her mesmerizingly strange new short-story collection, with an elaborate dinner party. The hostess and narrator has made a terrine, and even that showy culinary effort carries a whiff of violence. And it is mentioned on the first page of the title story, well before the night’s serious maiming has begun.
