Spotify said on Friday that Apple's new plan to comply with the European Union's Digital Markets Act ( DMA ) is "a complete and total farce." From early March, developers will be able to offer alternative app stores on iPhone and opt out of using Apple's in-app payment system, which charges commissions of up to 30 percent, under the bloc's new rules. However, developers will still be required to pay a "core technology fee" of EUR 50 (roughly Rs. 4,500) per user account per year under Apple's new EU regime. "From the beginning, Apple has been clear that they didn't like the idea of abiding by the DMA. So they've formulated an undesirable alternative to the status quo," the music streaming-giant said on Friday. Spotify said it would have to pay a 17 percent commission if it stays in the App Store and offers its own in-app payment under the new terms. "Every developer can choose to stay on the same terms in place today...

Moto G34 5G launched in India on January 9 as an affordable 5G smartphone and is now available for purchase as well. The Moto G lineup has been around for more than a decade now. I still remember the very first Moto G launched in 2013 with stock Android, some Moto exclusive features, a single 5-megapixel rear camera, and thick bezels. 10 years later, there are a lot of changes with the G lineup, but Motorola has managed to keep the pricing affordable. The new Moto G34 5G costs less than the launch price of the original Moto G. And instead of a 5-megapixel camera, you now get 50-megapixels. I've been using the newly launched Moto G34 5G for over a week now, and here's my take on the latest G phone!
