As reported by Engadget, “the entertainment giant has released a free extended playable demo of the PlayStation VR exclusive.” The demo is now available for download from the PlayStation Store.

If the July 3 release date feels too far, and you already own a PlayStation VR setup at home, you can download the freely available Iron Man VR demo from the PlayStation Store. With this, you will be able to wear Tony Stark’s suit, fly, shoot enemies, and get a complete feel of being the Avenger hero.

It’s not been too long that the Amazon’s Fire TV Stick got launched in India. Still, in this short time the product was capable to gain a lot of popularity resulting in a lot of companies seeking tie-ups with Amazon’s Fire TV Stick to render their services through this platform. The product is priced at Rs. 3,999, which seems to be a fair price concerning the services being provided.
Using Amazon’s Fire TV Stick without subscribing to Amazon Prime can’t be a good idea as both the products belonging to the same company comes with some benedictions. Even after the device is reasonably priced, the company has got more to offer if you are a Prime member like you’ll get Rs. 499 cashback as Amazon Pay balance once you purchase it. This platform is suggestively best for those who want to surf on their television screens to find some new shows to binge on, plus those who like enjoying regular television. Yeah, apart from Amazon Prime there are plenty of other apps where you can enjoy an endless amount of great content.
So, let’s get to some of the ‘MUST’ live TV apps that you need to have to ascend your viewing experience via Amazon’s Fire TV Stick.
YouTube works onAmazon’s Fire TV Stick just by log-in into its website and is counted amongst the most widely used apps on the platform. And you can’t deny the fact that it’s the handiest app when it comes to finding the content of your choice. All you need to do is to just type in the keywords and the content is right there on your screen. YouTube is right now one of the largest video catering platforms, with an abundance of content including the viral and forbidden ones. So, the moment you sign in to your YouTube account, you can smoothly have access to this app as you have it on your phone.
2. Netflix
Netflix, the chart-topping app is also available on Amazon’s Fire TV Stick. It’s pretty evident that Netflix’s membership is a lot more expensive than Amazon’s Prime membership but frankly speaking it’s worth every single penny keeping in mind the quality of service it provides. This content has gained so much of popularity that people have started terming Netflix as a mood, i.e. Netflix & Chill.
The praises are justified with the number of shows and movies it offers. If you’re a fan of series like-Gossip Girls, F.R.I.E.N.D.S, How to get away with murder, Sherlock Holmes or The Office, then don’t forget to grab your membership as soon as possible. It has its original series and movie that are very much loved and you can’t resist watching them once you get started. The app has got an up to date check on the latest updates of your favorite shows.
The app gels quite well with Amazon’s Fire TV Stick as the interface works quite smoothly on the big screen with an effortless loading allowing you to have a quick hand on the content.
3. Hotstar
If you want some platform with a large variety of content that too at a pocket-friendly price then I’ll suggest going with the Star’s Hotstar as its way cheaper than Netflix. It will provide you access to most of all the HBO’s catalog, with breath-taking shows like Game of Thrones and Silicon Valley, accompanied by Disney and Marvel movies. The cherry on top is for the sports junkies as Hotstar also streams international sports events like Premier League and IPL.
Even though Netflix has a better interface but considering the pricing in the picture, Hotstar is not at all a bad option to go for with such a reasonably priced content. Over time the platform has done drastic improvements and is getting better with every forthcoming update.
4. Gaana
We have talked a lot about video content-based apps, now let’s talk about one of the best apps to groove on music. If you think YouTube is the best option for you to stream music, then you need to think twice. YouTube is not a great platform for only streaming music because it wastes a lot of bandwidth on the videos when you just want to listen to music.
So, one of the best apps for you to stream music is Gaana. As the app has a great collection of music that ranges from regional to international music, which comes free of cost. If you like a mix of Indian and international music, then I bet there is no better platform for you to stream music than this app. It also provides you with an automated list that could go along well with your current mood. So, if you want to listen to music, then don’t think twice and just go for this app you won’t regret.
5. DittoTV
Ditto TV is the cheapest app when it comes to live television broadcasting apps. As the app provides you a monthly subscription at just Rs. 20. It comes with all the Zee channels along with some other additional ones. The only reason why it isn’t counted among the most popular apps is because of the lack of trendy shows on it. Most people use it only to watch live Zee original show making its viewership quite narrowed. But the price is so affordable that you can’t mind having its subscription.
6. Hulu
Hulu Tv has emerged as the bearer of a unique selection of entertainment. It is a very convenient source for you to watch your favorite shows and movies. The app has now tried its hand in production with some amazing Hulu originals. The app helps you to catch up with the prior seasons of some trending shows or the movies that you could not get a chance to watch in theatres. The best part is the cheap subscription for which it is available.
Sony’s PS 5 is creating a buzz right now after Sony revealed a few details about the PlayStation 5. The company has said the console is approximately 100 times faster than the PS4. PS4 was launched in 2013 and is its current product in the gaming market. According to Sony, the PS5 can process data 100 times faster than PS4. This is because of the adoption of high-speed SSD for storage.
Sony shared a document in which the company said, “through a custom‐designed high‐speed SSD, we plan to realize game data processing speeds that are approximately 100 times faster than PS4″. The technology has considerably improved since the launch of PlayStation4 seven years ago.

When Will Sony Reveal PS5
There are rumors that Sony is preparing for an online reveal for the PS5. According to the rumors, the company may reveal the PlayStation 5 in June. However there is no official confirmation from Sony regarding this event. We still need to wait until Sony breaks its silence and gives a nod to the ongoing rumors. But if the coming reports are true then the PS5 may be seen soon, as the month is only a few days away. On the other side there are reports that the new Xbox Series X will also have a dedicated event in June.

Microsoft is adding a new set of controls to the tool which will aid it to read text aloud. This will help those users, who depend on this feature to avoid eye strain, fatigue, and headaches.
More Windows 10 Accessibility Upgrades
Similarly, the built-in screen reader of Windows 10, Narrator is also getting a couple of enhancements. Microsoft says it has made the tool sound more natural by reducing the number of pauses it makes when reading a section of text. Now the Narrator will be able to process the text one complete sentence at a time. Microsoft also says it has created new sounds for the most common actions users make while using the tool.
There are a couple of additional enhancements when Narrator is used in conjunction with a web browser and Outlook. In both the web browser and the Outlook, Narrator will now automatically start reading from the top of the page by default. There’s another enhancement to the Narrator that will see it better able to handle links tied to phrases like “click here.”
These tweaks to the accessibility features of Windows 10 can make things more clear easily accessible to the users who use them. If you also use and depend on Windows 10’s accessibility features, you can look forward to trying out the enhancements the company will be rolling out the May 2020 accessibility upgrade later this month.
