Having shut down Justin.tv on the back of a reported $1 billion Google acquisition, live video game streaming service Twitch is now blocking copyrighted music.

Twitch uses software called Audible Magic which scans videos for music that is owned or controlled by Audible Magic clients. This could take the form of either in-game or background music. Live broadcasts will not be scanned.

“The Audible Magic technology will scan for third party music in 30 minute blocks,” reads a blog post from Twitch. “[I]f Audible Magic does not detect its clients’ music, that portion of the VOD will not be muted. If third party audio is detected anywhere in the 30-minute scanned block, the entire 30 minutes will be muted.”

Google Play Music for Android is getting a nice new update this week that adds a new widget for instant access to your “I’m feeling lucky” mix. This release also makes improvements to the app’s existing widget by introducing a new design and finally making it resizable.

Earlier today, an unannounced Samsung smartphone made a pitstop at the United States of America’s official certification authority — the FCC. Information included in the brief filing documentation reveals that we are probably looking at the upcoming Galaxy Alpha (SM-G850F) — a more powerful, durable and elegant model of the company’s flagship smartphone of 2014.

It looks like Google is all set to bring multi-user support to Android handsets with the next public release of the OS — Android L.

The company did not announce this feature officially when it had formally announced the OS at Google I/O back in June.

Today’s selection for our weekly Wednesday’s Must Have Game column is Asphalt 8: Airborne, it originally launched for Android back in 2013, and has since racked up a bunch of hefty updates crammed full of great features —  helping to make it one of the best and most advanced racing games currently available on the market.
