| Today's Top Stories | | #1 | Apple to use oxide TFTs on next-gen iPads; LG reacts | | | By Mihai Mitei, G for Games | | | LG Display's facilities currently have an output of 9,000 oxide TFT shees per month.

Why This Matters: All part of the compare/contrast. At least Microsoft is back to rating a head to head with Apple. Or is it the other way around? The author calls the Surface 3 the "Surface 3 Pro Lite" to clarify how much it is not like the Surface 2. My head hurts.

I don't know, Surface has invisibility, iPad can fly…" So: this story will tell you about the difference between Surface 3 and iPad. Then scroll down in today's newsletter for the difference between Surface 3 and Surface Pro 3—and a bonus story on rumors about iPad Pro (that can't be the name) And—finally the so-called "lies and fantasies" about Surface Pro 4 scheduled for Christmas yet to come. –Cynthia Wisehart |
| | #3 | There's an Airbnb for recording studios now | | | By Zara Golden, The Fader | | | Attention all bedroom producers and songwriters: Studiotime.io is about to change your game. Aiming to help connect recording artists with studio space, the newly launched online marketplace has fashioned itself as "the Airbnb of recording studios." More»
Why This Matters: Where this really gets interesting is the home studio. Maybe you'll build one now that you can list it for rental to offset some of the cost? -Cynthia Wisehart |
