Netflix Co-CEO Sees Warner Split as Part of Broader ‘Shakeout'
Warner Bros. Discovery Inc. 's decision to split into two independent companies is a sign of a broader 'shakeout' across a media industry that has become increasingly dominated by streaming and on-demand services, Netflix Inc. co-Chief Executive Officer Greg Peters said.
'Everything is moving to streaming — everything is moving to on demand,' Peters said Thursday in an interview with Bloomberg Editor-in-Chief John Micklethwait at the Founders Forum Global conference. 'There's going to be a period of shakeout and transition associated with that.'

Top 6 concerts this week in Sarasota, Bradenton, Punta Gorda
With us in June and out of tourist and snowbird season, it's another concert picks installment made up almost entirely of musicians from Florida, and largely ones who call the Sarasota area home — at least for now. In bittersweet news, one of my current favorite bands from Sarasota-Manatee will be moving, but not before playing a farewell bash at one of their regular local venues. That same venue in Bradenton this weekend will also host a reunion show for another Sarasota-Manatee group. Other notable concerts this week will include the debut of a new venue hosting coffeehouse folk-style acts, the return of a Blues Music Award-nominated performer, and two free, day-long fests celebrating punk and blues music. Here are this week's highlights. Event details are schedule to change. Looking for more fun?

PCIe 7.0 is coming, but not soon, and not for you
The PCIe 7.0 specification has now been released, while many of us are still waiting for PCIe 6.0 to materialize in consumer products. The PCI Special Interest Group (PCI-SIG) announced on Wednesday that PCIe 7.0 is now available to members of its organization, delivering a theoretical maximum bandwidth speed of 512GB per second in both directions, across a x16 connection. 'PCIe technology has served as the high-bandwidth, low-latency IO interconnect of choice for over two decades and we are pleased to announce the release of the PCIe 7.0 specification, which continues our long-standing tradition of doubling the IO bandwidth every three years,' PCI-SIG President Al Yanes said in the announcement. 'As artificial intelligence applications continue to scale rapidly, the next generation of PCIe technology meets the bandwidth demands of data-intensive markets deploying AI, including hyperscale data centers, high performance computing (HPC), automotive, and military/aerospace.' You may have noticed that consumer computing devices weren't included in that statement — the specification is targeting data-driven applications like cloud and quantum computing datacenters for now, and will take some time to even appear in those markets. PCI-SIG says that PCIe 7.0 will be backward compatible with previous PCI Express versions, but there's no mention of plans to bring it to everyday desktop SSDs or GPUs any time soon. That shouldn't be surprising, given the PCIe 5.0 spec that launched in 2019 only started trickling into consumer hardware two years ago, and is still fairly uncommon. Image: PCI-SIG
