YouTube Music can be a default service on the Apple HomePod now

The Verge

YouTube Music is now compatible with HomePods, as announced by the product head Brandon Bilinski on Reddit. You can now ask Siri to play songs from the service or make it your default music source on your Apple smart speakers. You can follow the steps on this support page to set it up.

HomePods have limited options for third-party music services so far. Besides YouTube Music, only Deezer and Pandora have added support so far. Spotify can be controlled by Siri on HomePods, but not connected directly to the speakers.

To use YouTube Music on your HomePods, you need a YouTube Music or YouTube Premium account. In the app, tap your user icon, then Settings > Connected Apps > Connect with HomePod. To make it your default service, open the Home App, tap the settings icon, then Home Settings > Your username > Default Service.

If you don’t see the "Connected Apps" option in YouTube Music, try closing and reopening the app. You may also need to update the app to the latest version.

Apple TV+ reportedly cancels 'The Problem With Jon Stewart' over controversial topics

Apple

The Problem With Jon Stewart, the political satire show on Apple TV+, has been cancelled after two seasons. The New York Times reported that creative differences between Stewart and Apple led to the decision, which came just weeks before the third season filming was supposed to start. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Stewart wanted complete creative control of the series. However, Apple objected to some topics he planned to cover, such as China and artificial intelligence. Stewart reportedly refused to compromise and chose to walk away from the show.

The show premiered in 2021, six years after Stewart left The Daily Show, and featured hour-long episodes on current affairs. The first season had eight episodes released biweekly, while the second season had 12 episodes released weekly with a mid-season break. It tackled controversial issues such as gender identity and the indictment of former president Donald Trump. However, these topics also caused tension between Stewart and Apple. The Times said may have feared being involved in political disputes, so Apple agreed to end their partnership.
