Here is everything you need to know about lossless audio on Apple Music and how you can hear the difference. What Is Lossless Audio on Apple Music? Lossless audio is a method applied during compression and decompression that preserves the quality of the original recording. Even though the audio file is made smaller, it still sounds exactly like it did when the artist recorded it. Apple wants to use lossless to improve your overall listening experience and has changed its entire catalog’s compatibility....

LTE is used by mobile devices like smartphones and tablets instead of a wireless (Wi-Fi) connection. As with 3G or 4G, LTE is a technology standard that determines how mobile devices connect to the internet from cellular towers. LTE Benefits Despite being slower than true 4G, LTE is an improvement over older technologies and mobile broadband standards. Compared with 3G, LTE offers: Higher bandwidth (faster connection speeds). A better underlying technology for voice calls (VoIP) and multimedia streaming....

Shaq spoke candidly about the times he visited Joe Exotic’s animal park in his podcast The Big Podcast With Shaq. “I don’t harm tigers. I love tigers. I love white tigers,” he said in the conversation. Shaq’s love of tigers seems to be what placed him at the roadside zoo in the first place. Tiger King aired on Netflix in March and has already gained tons of fan attention for a few reasons....

Neither the Bears (6-7) nor the Vikings (6-7) is maintaining much of a chance of the postseason entering a Week 15 matchup, but Trubisky’s chase for a big payout in 2021 free agency is certainly a narrative to follow. Chicago just beat the Texans, 36-7, a week ago, a battle of Trubisky against his 2017 draft counterpart, Deshaun Watson, so there’s some upward momentum for Trubisky. On the other side, the Vikings haven’t been quite good enough....

But Tampa Bay will have to get through a red-hot Canadiens squad to accomplish that feat. The Canadiens entered the Stanley Cup playoffs as an afterthought. They had the fewest points of any team to make the postseason (59) and only qualified because they played in what was perceived to be the NHL’s weakest division, the North. Montreal knocked off the Maple Leafs in a seven-game first-round series and has been on a tear ever since....

Their first matchup needed overtime to decide the outcome. Milwaukee was playing without superstar forward Giannis Antetokounmpo or Khris Middleton, but Boston was also missing Jaylen Brown. Grayson Allen poured in 21 points, including a clutch 3-pointer to send the game into overtime, while Bobby Portis added 22 points and Jrue Holiday had a 17-point, 13-assist double-double. However, their efforts weren’t enough to overcome a season-high 38 points from Celtics guard Dennis Schroder and a 27-point, 11-rebound double-double from Jayson Tatum....

The Tigers had the best chance to challenge for the Playoff entering Rivalry Week, sporting a 10-1 record and needing to win out against South Carolina and the Tar Heels to make a late run for the CFP. But Dabo Swinney’s Tigers were the second top-10 team to fall to the Gamecocks in as many weeks, ending any chance Clemson had of challenging for the national championship. North Carolina’s hopes ended a week earlier in a stunning 21-17 upset by Georgia Tech, which dropped the team to two losses on the season, effectively eliminating the Tar Heels from CFP contention....

Dak Prescott looked like an MVP candidate for the Cowboys again against the Falcons, completing 77 percent of his passes for 296 yards and two touchdowns. Prescott added a rushing touchdown to his total, rounding out an impressive rebuttal to his abysmal performance against the Broncos the week before. Now at 7-2, the Cowboys are in a good place in an NFC that is full of teams that are beginning to come down with the midseason blues....

Thursday’s game will be the last time either of these teams play before the deadline passes on Nov. 3, and with Atlanta mired in a 1-6 start, it’s likely the Falcons will move on from some players. While Julio Jones and Matt Ryan’s contracts make them tough to move, Thursday could be the last game for a handful of Falcons. What the Panthers do at the deadline will likely depend on Thursday’s result, since they enter the game 3-4....

In the summer of 2019, the story begins with an offer sheet to restricted free agent Sebastian Aho by the Canadiens. Carolina was none-too-thrilled by the move by Montreal and its general manager Marc Bergevin, but matched to retain the services of the young Finn. AHO: Offer sheet extended | Twitter war | Hurricanes match Then this past summer it was the Hurricanes’ turn. GM Don Waddell and Co., and made an offer sheet for Jesperi Kotkaniemi....

Neither team is coming off a very successful 2018 season, and they each went in different directions over the offseason. The Jets made one of the biggest free agent splashes, inking running back Le’Veon Bell, who they hope will form a dynamic tandem with quarterback Sam Darnold. It’s not yet known whether Bell — who held out all of last season — will play Thursday. The Giants, meanwhile, dealt Odell Beckham Jr....

Calgary nearly lost to Jake Oettinger the Stars in the first round, heavily outplaying Dallas but needing seven games and overtime in Game 7 to advance. Johnny Gaudreau had the OT winner to send the Flames to the second round and finished the series leading the team in points with seven. Jacob Markstrom was phenomenal in net, ending the first round with a GAA of 1.51 and a SV% of ....

This game will be Jones’ first NFL start, after he was deemed QB1 last week when the Patriots released Cam Newton. Tagovailoa is entering his second NFL season. Last year, the Dolphins went 10-6 and finished second in the AFC East. Not a bad first season for the former Heisman Trophy winner. The Patriots last season finished third after the Dolphins with a record of 7-9. The Dolphins defense led the NFL in interceptions last season....

Team News - Portland Trail Blazers The Portland Trail Blazers have been hit by a flurry of injuries, which has forced head coach Terry Stotts to tweak his starting lineup. Important players like CJ McCollum and Jusuf Nurkic remain sidelined, due to foot and wrist injuries respectively. Offseason acquisition Derrick Jones Jr. also remains out due to a foot issue, while Zach Collins will miss the game with an ankle injury....

Arizona is in the midst of a storybook season. It managed to drop just one game in Kyler Murray’s absence after being injured against the Packers. The Cardinals now lead the NFC despite a loss against the No. 2 Packers, and Murray didn’t appear to have missed a beat against the Bears. Much like Stafford and the Rams, however, a more stout opponent stands before Arizona this week. When these teams met in October, the Cardinals laid the wood on Los Angeles in a 37-20 victory....

Which is a bummer for those fans, because Steelers vs. Ravens in Week 5, a game scheduled to kick off at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday, became more important when Pittsburgh got its first win of the season a day after Baltimore fell to 2-2 last week. The AFC North remains wide open. The Steelers got here on the strength of their running game and defense, yes, but quarterback Mason Rudolph deserves some credit....

Paul was masterful in the fourth quarter of Game 3, scoring 19 of his 28 points in the final frame. The All-Star guard finished the game with 28 points, 14 assists and zero turnovers. The Suns’ depth proved too much in Game 3 as Deandre Ayton added 28 points and 17 rebounds, while Mikal Bridges had 17 and Javale McGee chipped in 15 points off the bench. Brandon Ingram (34 points) and CJ McCollum (30 points) both turned in solid nights on the offensive end, but the Pelicans failed to capitalize on an off-shooting night from the Suns, who managed just 15....

The Titans offense appeared to be explosive Week 1 when they dropped a 43 spot on a respectable Browns defense in Cleveland, but they scored only 17 at home the next week in a 19-17 loss to Indianapolis. The Jaguars, on the other hand, were dealt a blow from the onset when they lost starting quarterback Nick Foles until at least Week 11 with a broken clavicle. Gardner Minshew has probably been better than expected, but he only managed 12 points against Houston in his first game as a starter....

The NFL schedule for Week 8 presents us a Thursday night game that is, well, not the best matchup. Minnesota is a 16-point favorite over Washington, per Sportsbook Review, a spread that has as much to do with the Redskins’ general ineptitude at 1-6 as it does the Vikings’ streak of three consecutive wins to reach 5-2. The obvious storyline around Kirk Cousins on Thursday night is his revenge game against the team that let him hit free agency last year....
