Aerial has 10 cities throughout the world, and offers a day and night flyover of each which you can turn on and off in the screensaver options. If you have multiple displays, Aerial will allow you to show different screensavers on each display if you wish.

Aerial is free and requires macOS Mavericks and above.

Amazon Prime coming to Apple TV this fall. Maybe.

The tech giants, who are increasingly competing for customers’ time, eyeballs and money, are close to an agreement to bring an Amazon video app to Apple’s Apple TV set-top box, according to people familiar with the two companies.

Ahhhh the famous “people familiar with” source. Those people seem to know everything. Accurate or not, this would be a huge win for Apple. HUGE. Perhaps even enough to move the Apple TV out of the “hobby” category.

Here’s hoping.
