Google today updated its Google Play Movies & TV app for iOS with offline playback. You can download the new version now directly from Apple’s App Store. The addition means you can now download movies and TV shows to your device, and then watch the videos on the go, even when you don’t have an Internet connection.

Serial entrepreneur and Dallas Mavericks owner, Mark Cuban had some choice words for the investors in Silicon Valley while speaking at TechCrunch Disrupt.

Everyone throws money at everything because they want to find their unicorn,” said Cuban, when asked about investments in the red-hot tech market. For every Uber and Instagram that gets acquired or turns a profit, there are nine startups that crash and burn. Not the type of fail rate that Cuban is looking for. He also…
