This week, Microsoft met with European Union regulators in a closed-door hearing in Brussels to defend its $69 billion acquisition of Activision Blizzard Inc. The UK's CMA previously suggested that the deal may be approved if Microsoft were to divest the Call of Duty division of ABK, but on Tuesday, Microsoft Corp. made it clear that there will be no deal unless it comes with the blockbuster IP. We're joined by streamer Sensitive Joy to discuss the implications of this hearing and try to predict the outcome of the biggest deal the video game industry has ever seen.We'll also be talking about the announcement that the next Capcom Cup will have a 1st place prize of $1 million, how horror movie powerhouse Blumhouse is getting into video games, Miyamoto's admission that Nintendo is “always working on Mario” but isn't ready to share anything just yet, and the new partnership between Generation Esports and Nintendo that will bring Nintendo games into the Middle School Esports League.Finally, class is in session with Professor Ryebread in our Gaming History 101 segment.

Geoff has led the BPI for 15 years, a period which has seen significant technological, economic and structural change. We speak to him about the changes he has seen, the work he and the BPI has done in the music tech sector, and where it's all going next in the UK's recorded music industry. We also dig into two of the biggest issues he's faced: the recent UK parliamentary inquiry into the economics of music streaming, and the decision by the UK's CMA - the Competition and Markets Authority - not to conduct a full market investigation into music streaming and the UK's music industry. This episode is the first in a new ongoing series, celebrating Music Ally's upcoming 20th anniversary, which will feature interviews with people who have had a signifiant impact on the music industry during the last two decades. ------
