This underrated app is better than YouTube Music, but I’m still not switching

YouTube Music and Deezer are both music streaming platforms, with Deezer offering a cleaner interface, organized sections, and a visually appealing design. Deezer features a personalized Flow mix, music quizzes, lossless audio streaming, and integrated concert information, while YouTube Music excels in video content and has a more robust podcast feature. The primary barrier to switching from YouTube Music to Deezer is cost, with YouTube Music being cheaper in many regions. However, in the U.S., Deezer's pricing is more competitive, making it a more appealing option for some users.

Jared Hess Is Still a Sundance Guy: Why the Smash Hit ‘Minecraft Movie’ Feels a Little Like an Indie Film

Jared Hess, director of “A Minecraft Movie,” admires Robert Eggers’ reinterpretation of “Nosferatu” for its distinct personality and unexpected storytelling elements. Hess gained recognition with “Napoleon Dynamite” at the 2004 Sundance Film Festival, which became successful through word-of-mouth. “A Minecraft Movie” has earned over million at the box office after three weekends, significantly surpassing “Napoleon Dynamite's” total earnings. Hess's children served as unofficial consultants during the film's development, contributing to its personal touch. Adapting “Minecraft” posed challenges due to its lack of a traditional narrative, but it also allowed for creative freedom, particularly with the character of Steve. The film was primarily shot in Auckland, New Zealand, and Hess emphasized collaboration with game developers to balance fidelity to the source material with innovative storytelling. Despite mixed critical reception, Hess maintains his comedic style focused on character and story, and he hopes for broader opportunities in Hollywood.
