      Subscription is almost 100 dollars per year. It’s not free. So, 100k is indeed impressive

      You know American barely watch any soccer.

      Note that that’s only new American subscribers on a single day. It doesn’t include the reportedly huge jump in international subscribers. Plus, they’ve continued adding more American and international subscribers since then throughout July and August.

      @Edward Tse More Americans under 25 watch soccer than baseball. The problem for MLS has always been that many of those people watch European soccer. But Messi is beginning to change this.

      That was just on Messi’s debut game…….considering the incredible journey Inter Miami started since with Messi who knows how many times that number of subscriptions they may be hitting by now!

    What this report doesn’t say or clarify is that the 110,000 signups was on a single day, Messi’s first game. July 21st. Prior to it, Apple TV was adding about 5400 per day. Apple also added another 65000 on July 25, Messi’s second game. So, obviously Messi is making a big splash

Apple filed a trade secrets lawsuit against OpenAI last Friday, and it’s not messing around. The complaint alleges a pattern of misconduct reaching all the way up to OpenAI’s chief hardware officer and claims more than 400 former Apple employees now work at the company. OpenAI’s response so far has been carefully hedged, and the timing couldn’t be worse with the company reportedly eyeing an IPO as early as later this year.

On this episode of TechCrunch’s Equity podcast, hosts Kirsten Korosec, Anthony Ha, and Sean O’Kane dig into what the lawsuit could mean for OpenAI’s own hardware ambitions and IPO timeline, plus a bigger theme running through the week’s news: how much should anyone trust AI companies with their data?
