Apple News+ Food is coming soon
As a fat and nerdy guy, two of my favorite things in the world are technology and food. And so, when Apple announced News+ Food today, my tummy rumbled in anticipation.
But what exactly is it? Quite simply, News+ Food is a new section of the Apple News+ service that is dedicated to -- you guessed it -- food! This new section encompasses all things culinary, such as recipes, restaurant reviews, and healthy eating, to name but a few.
Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and Apple News+ all get massive price increases
Following the lead of Netflix, Apple is set to increase its subscription prices. Apple TV+, Apple Arcade and Apple News+ are all affected, with existing subscribers having 30 days before the price jump; new subscribers will have to pay the higher price immediately.
The increases are significant, with Apple TV+ subscriptions going up by a colossal 43 percent per month. Apple One also jumps in price across the three tiers -- Individual, Family and Premier. The new pricing will apply in the US as well as "select international markets".
