An 11-year-old Florida girl was arrested after falsely texting authorities that her friend was kidnapped by an armed man. She later confessed the prank was part of a YouTube challenge.The girl texted 911 Wednesday morning to say her friend, 14, was abducted by “an armed male driving a white van on South I-95 in Oak Hill,” the Volusia Sheriff’s Office said in a news release. The girl said she was following the van in a blue Jeep. NBC News is not identifying the 11-year-old because she is a minor. A dispatcher to the sheriff's communication advised the sheriff's office at 9:45 a.m. of a “suspicious incident reported by text message.” The 11-year-old then texted updates for the next hour and a half — describing the male suspect and saying he had a gun. Deputies responded along with help from the sheriff's office aviation unit and officers from Edgewater, New Smyrna Beach and Port Orange to search for the suspect vehicle — but no van was found. At about 10:30 a.m., deputies tracked the cellphone that was texting 911 to a home in Port Orange. Once at the home, they spoke with the girl's father, who said she was inside with her family. “As deputies

By embedding a new app store, customers can access popular third-party apps through the multimedia interface (MMI) through a data link in the vehicle. As a result, the YouTube app is available in the app store for Audi owners for the first time. Video streaming will launch in selected Audi models over the summer, with other VW Group brands to follow.Beginning this month, drivers of select Audi models can access their chosen content via the YouTube app in their vehicle’s infotainment system. The access is made possible by embedding the new app store, which Audi developed with Volkswagen’s software company CARIAD and its partner HARMAN Ignite. Enabled apps include music, video, gaming navigation, parking and charging, productivity, weather, and news, with apps such as YouTube installed directly in Audi’s MMI system rather than through a smartphone.After installing the app in the store, it appears in the MMI and is launched by tapping the icon. The app works just like the YouTube app

YouTube TV will “offer a special bundle combining Warner Bros. Discovery’s Max with the NFL Sunday Ticket out-of-market football package,” according to Todd Spangler of VARIETY. It is part of an "expanded deal with WBD that encompassed Google TV’s teaming up for the launch of Max (formerly HBO Max)." Pricing and packaging of the Max-Sunday Ticket package on YouTube TV is “not yet available.” Google earlier this year inked an “exclusive, seven-year deal” with the NFL to “sell the Sunday Ticket package via YouTube TV and YouTube Primetime Channels, starting with the 2023 season.” The company will reportedly “pay the NFL between” $2-2.5B “per year for Sunday Ticket, up from the estimated” $1.5B that DirecTV had been shelling out (VARIETY, 7/25). GOING MOBILE: DEADLINE’s Dade Hayes reported Verizon has reached a deal with YouTube and the NFL that will enable them to "offer new customers access to Sunday Ticket at no extra charge.” The offer will be “made to Verizon customers who buy or pre-order certain smartphones and sign up for a mobile line,” or those who “sign up for select home internet plans.” Existing customers who “upgrade to qualifying plans will also be eligible for the offer” (DEADLINE, 7/26).

Spotify is following suit in a wave of subscription services jacking up monthly prices. At $10.99, Spotify has increased its monthly service by $1, which sets it to join the likes of YouTube Music in price jumps. As long as we can remember, Spotify has consistently stuck to a personal Premium cost of $9.99/month. If you wanted to add a few family members, you were looking at $15.99 for the entire household. That pricing model helped set the standard for subscription services, whether they were for music or other digital content. Now, it looks like things are changing, though we aren’t surprised. Spotify Premium is undergoing a price change. The individual Premium Single plan is jumping from $9.99 to $10.99, while the Premium Family plan is seeing a similar increase to $16.99. Add Premium Duo to that list with a new price of $14.99. Overall, the $1 jump isn’t massive, but it’s a change nonetheless. The only changes as of late to the service are a new TikTok-style home feed and a recent Barbie makeover, but those don’t seem big enough to warrant a $1 monthly Spotify Premium price increase to a service many users already consider too pricey.
