Amazon's Lord of the Rings: The Rings of Power was both extremely successful and extremely divisive in the LOTR fan community.

TikTok and Universal Music Group (UMG) have signed a deal that will allow Taylor Swift, Olivia Rodrigo, The Weeknd and other artists to return to the platform, the companies announced in a press release.
