hey I'm Kareem leave me and I'm Emily Dreyfuss and welcome to rumor has it the show where we round up the week's biggest tech room and then we vote on what sounds legit and what seems like it will never ever happen and remember that you can vote on all the rumors too so keep your eyes out for the pole in the interactive player if you're watching on cnet first up is this a weird mysterious fifth-generation iPad as 9to5 mac claims it is is your new new iPad already obsolete again of course it's obsolete it'll always be obsolete as Apple releases a new version every year but you already knew that my first generation iPad has been obsolete since like a month after I bought it is this slightly scuffed and taped up back piece and actual part of the new device though nobody knows if it is the new iPad is going to have a thinner bezel even thinner than the ipad for something akin to the ipad minis however that's an obvious change if you can eliminate a bezel you do an apple is definitely trending toward edge to edge screens so this could just be a very well executed and not particularly insightful great guest by an accessory maker next according to the site Ad Age YouTube is aiming to offer paid channel subscriptions this year the paid channels would likely be created by large media companies that already have channels and lots of subscribers the channels would cost between one and five dollars a month a YouTube rep told CNET that they've been looking into a subscription model for years YouTube is supposedly also eyeing a plan to charge for other items including entire libraries of videos live events and advice shows the pay channels which are rumored to launch next quarter would still have ads in them so now you'd be paying to watch videos plus you'd get ads so sounds exactly like cable TV only cheaper or Hulu Plus the only good thing about this though is that it would encourage higher-end better content on YouTube even though nobody wants to pay for YouTube moving on the rumored low cost new iphone will be a cross between the iphone 5 the 5th generation ipod touch and the classic ipod says apple news site I lounge I can feel your eyes rolling from here you're thinking what I'm thinking aren't all iPhones cross between a phone and an ipod and what does throwing the classic in there even mean that it'll be thick and plasticky yeah that's exactly what that rumor alleges by going plastic Apple would achieve that cheap price we've been asking for and that cheap look to this is one of those we have absolutely no information about this but we really want to add something to the story kind of rumors credibility zilch desirability a hundred who doesn't want a hundred dollar iphone don't you guys want a cheaper new iphone will it be made out of plastic don't forget to vote in our poll while we see with the cnet council things the cnet council is composed of five editors who cast their votes anonymously their opinions are not an endorsement by cnet or CBS interactive obviously because these are rumors folks and the cnet council's verdict is absolutely not wow we had four editors who said no Apple is not working on a cheaper plastic iPhone in fact one of them said heck no with four exclamation points but one lonely editor did say yes we have some sad news Emily's time on rumor has it is coming to an end after this shall only be with us for two more episodes as she's moving across the country to live in Harvard Yard sad faces for everybody guys this is truly very sad for me I'm so proud of the show and I'm gonna miss talking to you every week and getting to hang out with Korean but it's not quite over yet let us know what you want to see me do in my last two shows do want me to juggle phones that would be dangerous our talk and my old lady voice or juggle while talking to my old lady voice send us your suggestions and share your rumors that rumor has it at cnet com or call us at 1 800 750 cnet and tweet us and tune in next week for more tech rumors you
