Master & Dynamic is bringing back a pair of wired earbuds it first introduced in 2015. | Image: Master & Dynamic Master & Dynamic has announced an updated version of its ME05 wired earphones. First introduced in 2015, the ME05 were eventually discontinued in early 2022 but the company is reintroducing them with familiar design elements including “precision-machined brass acoustic enclosures” while updating other components to improve their performance. Like the originals, the new ME05 are $199 and are available now through Master & Dynamic’s website, and coming to Amazon “this winter.” Upgrades made to the new version of the ME05 include “custom high-excursion 8mm bio-cellulose drivers” and a better microphone with “with proprietary wind reduction” to improve the quality of your voice during calls, even while outside. Image: Master & Dynamic An included USB-C to 3.5mm adapter serves as a digital to audio converter. The new ME05 also offer improved compatibility, says Master & Dynamic, with the inclusion of a 3.5mm to USB-C adapter featuring a built-in digital to analog converter that supports hi-res audio up to 32-bit/384kHz resolutions. For comparison, Tidal’s hi-res streaming audio maxes out at 24-bit / 192 kHz. Image: Master & Dynamic The new version of the ME05 come in four different color options. The earphones come with foam ear tips in two sizes and silicone tips in five different sizes, and are available in four color options including gold and black, gunmetal and black, palladium and black, and palladium and white. Although Master & Dynamic has focused on premium wireless headphone offerings in recent years (amongst other headphone makers), wired headphones, including Apple’s iconic tethered EarPods, still remain popular. But while Apple still sells wired earphones for $19, Master & Dynamic’s revived ME05 are priced more in line with wired offerings from companies like Shure and Sennheiser that are targeted at audiophiles or musicians.

EA is also releasing a UE5 plugin for it’s Iris photosensitivity tech, which features on games like Madden NFL 24 (Pictured). | Image: Electronic Arts Electronic Arts is expanding its accessibility program with 23 additional tech patents that other companies and developers can freely use without being slapped with an infringement lawsuit. The expansion more than doubles the total number of patents that EA has opened up since launching the pledge in 2021, and includes generation and recognition tools for speech and audio. “We believe that games should be accessible to everyone and our industry-leading teams are always looking for new ways to make this a reality,” Kerry Hopkins, SVP of Global Affairs at EA, said in a press release. “By making this technology available to others, we continue to work to enhance accessibility and inclusivity for players around the world by removing unintended barriers to access.” Some examples of open tech patents include systems that can improve speech recognition, generate expressive speech audio from text data, and generate speech that mimics a player’s voice based on minimal sample speech data. One system uses machine learning to make a player’s voice sound older, while another “infers a player’s emotion while playing a video game” and automatically adjusts the game’s background music to best suit their emotional state. EA says these patents could be used to improve gaming experiences for players with speech disorders or who struggle with verbally expressing themselves, helping them to communicate in a way that better represents their age, emotion, language, and speaking style. Alongside this announcement, EA is also releasing a Unreal Engine 5 plugin that enables in-engine use of IRIS — EA’s photosensitivity analysis tech — to help game developers identify frames that could impact photosensitive players.

We've known for months that Warner Bros. Discovery plans to follow in Netflix's footsteps with a password-sharing crackdown for its Max streaming service. The move certainly worked out well for Netflix, which added millions of subscribers when it started enforcing its password-sharing ban last year. Other streamers watched from the sidelines while they pondered similar measures. Disney confirmed in April that it plans to crack down on Disney Plus password sharing. Then, the company started enforcing the new policies only a few weeks ago. Now, it looks like Max will be next in line. Continue reading...
