Apple made headlines this week when iPhone 17 Pro cameras captured an entire MLS game between LA Galaxy and Houston Dynamo FC. The May 21 broadcast marked the first time a professional soccer match aired using only iPhone footage, showcasing Apple's push to demonstrate mobile photography capabilities for live television production.

Epic Games finally brought Fortnite back to the App Store after years of legal battles, but the celebration felt forced. While gamers welcomed the return, Epic's dramatic "Final Battle" messaging clashed with the upbeat promotional campaign. Australia remains excluded from the relaunch due to ongoing legal proceedings in that region.

Plex sparked outrage by hiking its Lifetime Plex Pass from $249.99 to $749.99, a 500-dollar increase that makes the annual subscription more economical for most users. The steep jump reflects Plex's struggle to balance long-term development costs against consumer expectations for media server software pricing.
