Apple Music has updated its Replay experience, offering monthly visualizations of music habits, including minutes listened, top songs, albums, and artists. The 2024 Replay Mix is now available, updating weekly to reflect users' top songs of the year. While the full experience is only accessible through the website, users can view monthly stats for 2024 and previous years, and share their music habits with friends.

Apple Music Replay, the year-end summary of users' most-listened-to songs, artists, and albums, is now available on Apple Music's webpage. While it received a major update last year, making it more similar to Spotify Wrapped, the stats presented in Apple Music Replay are not as visually appealing and cannot be directly accessed within the Apple Music app. Users can still view their Replay playlist in the app, but the web experience lacks the shareable charts offered by Spotify Wrapped. Apple likely released Replay ahead of Spotify Wrapped to avoid being overshadowed on social media platforms.

Jurgen Klopp believes that Liverpool's match against Tottenham Hotspur should be replayed after a VAR error led to Luis Diaz's goal being disallowed for offside. Klopp argues that a replay is the only fair outcome, although he acknowledges that it is unlikely to happen. Liverpool had previously expressed their intention to explore their options following the incident. Klopp also criticized the decision to send off Curtis Jones and expressed disappointment with the overall VAR process.

A recent study published in Nature Neuroscience suggests that the human brain reactivates past events during new experiences, similar to how rodents replay relevant past events while navigating a maze. The study found that representations of past events were reactivated in the brain while participants watched a movie or listened to a narrated story, helping them make sense of each present scene. The researchers suggest that this "replay" process may have a richer function in humans and could inspire further studies aimed at better understanding its other functional roles.
During a game between the Los Angeles Angels and Miami Marlins, a hot mic caught crew chief Jeff Nelson mocking the Marlins' challenge of a call made by umpire C.B. Bucknor. However, the replay booth ruled in favor of the Marlins, giving them a 6-4 lead and ultimately leading to an 8-5 Marlins win. The challenge proved successful as it showed that Angels catcher Matt Thaiss did not have his foot on home plate to get the force out.

Princeton lacrosse advanced to the Ivy League Tournament final by one goal, but a controversial shot during the second quarter exemplified the need for replay in all sports, especially during the postseason. The lack of replay in the Ivy League Tournament led to the goal standing, but it ultimately didn't factor into the final score. The controversy highlights the need for replay technology to be implemented on every level of every sport.

The NFL competition committee has proposed eight rule changes for the 2023 season, including placing a touchback for a punt at the 25-yard line, making a fair catch on a kickoff result in the ball being placed at the 25-yard line, and allowing the use of the number "0" as a jersey number. Other proposals include changes to replay rules and an alternative to the onside kick. Some of the replay suggestions are for various reasons, including expanding the number of challenges allowed and making failed fourth-down conversions an automatic review.

MLB has introduced several rule changes this season, including a pitch clock, shift restrictions, and larger bases. The rules for shifting require two infielders on each side of second base, but the third baseman and shortstop can switch positions mid-inning. Pitch-timer violations are not reviewable by replay, and MLB seems committed to the current version of the pitch clock. Teams risk a lot by playing a two-man outfield, but if it becomes more pervasive, MLB has the right to change the rule. The distance between the bases has never been 90 feet, and the new bases will shorten the distance between first and second base by 4 1/2 inches. Umpires have discretionary powers, and there is definitely such a thing as umpire discretion.
