Netflix password sharing: how the rules work and what you need to know
The Netflix TV show category on iOS.

Back in the day, it was enough for one person in your family or group of friends to have a single Netflix account that got shared around. However, all of that changed in May 2023 when Netflix cracked down on password sharing, making it much more difficult to share an account outside of your home.

Netflix is one of the most popular streaming services out there, and with good reason. It delivers a massive library full of old favorites and new movies and shows like Stranger Things, Bridgerton, and Will & Harper. The sudden shift away from Netflix password sharing meant everyone from old roommates to college students were left trying to figure out what the new rules meant, and whether they'd need to pick up their own Netflix account.

Meze Audio debuts its lightest and most affordable open-back headphones
Meze Audio 105 AER open-back headphones.

Romanian company Meze Audio has developed a cultlike following among audiophiles for its selection of uncompromising (and expensive) open-back and closed-back wired headphones. With prices that soar as high as $4,000, Meze's products haven't always been very accessible. However, its latest open-back model -- the 105 AER -- may bring many more folks under the Meze tent. At $399, the 105 AER are the company's most affordable open-back headphones to-date, as well as its lightest. They'll be available from mezeaudio.com in early December.

The 105 AER's design is a clear evolution from the more expensive 109 Pro ($799), with Meze's signature self-adjusting headband and generously padded over-ear cushions. Where these new cans carve their own path is by using a different mix of materials and shapes. The 105 AER use cast zinc alloy, stamped manganese spring steel, and polyurethane (PU) leather in the headband design, but avoid the 109 Pro's use of wood, which may help to explain the weight difference: 11.8 ounces for the 105 AER versus 13 ounces for the 109 Pro.

1mm-thick speakers could reshape smart glasses, smartwatches, and earbuds
xMEMS Sycamore microspeaker driver.

XMEMS, the company that created the first speaker based on a microchip manufacturing processes, is getting set to release its next wave of tiny speakers. Known as Sycamore, the newest model is just 1.13 mm thick, and weighs only 150 milligrams, yet it can reproduce full-range sound over short distances -- like the gap between your ears and the limbs of your smart glasses -- according to xMEMS.

Sycamore is the latest step in the evolution of micro speakers. XMEMS' first version could be used in wireless earbuds to reproduce high frequencies, but needed the help of a dynamic driver for bass. Its second product could do full-range sound, but was still limited to earbuds that seal the ear canal with a silicone tip. Sycamore is the company's first micro speaker that reproduce full-range sound without the need of a closed, sealed environment.
