Microsoft Outlook.com Premium Discontinued, Integrated Into Office 365

Highlights

Microsoft adds features of Outlook.com Premium to Office 365
Office 365 Home and Personal subscribers can get the new benefits
Existing Outlook.com Premium subscribers to continue to renew their plan

After a long struggle to persuade users to pay for an ad-free experience, Microsoft has ultimately integrated Outlook.com Premium into Office 365. The latest development emerged months after the paid service left behind its preview and with its public release in the US.
Microsoft's Outlook.com Premium service was available in the US at an yearly charge of $49.95 (approximately Rs. 3,236). That amount accounted for features such as custom domain support, personalised email addresses, and an ad-free email service. All these features you can access now directly from your Office 365 Home and Personal subscription.

In addition to the original features, the Outlook.com Premium integration upgrades the mailbox storage space to 50GB for all Office Home and Personal subscribers. Microsoft is also touted to provide better malware scanning security and free technical support. However, these features are limited for Outlook.com email accounts. You need to sign up for your Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal subscription with an Outlook.com email address ending with @outlook.com, @hotmail.com, @live.com, and @msm.com to add the new benefits.
It is worth noting here that you can share the features of Outlook.com Premium with four other members using your Office 365 Home subscription. Also, commercial accounts will not receive the integration as Microsoft has designed Outlook.com as a consumer service.
"Enjoy advanced protection against phishing and malware, no ads, and other premium features for your Outlook.com account -- all part of your Office 365 Home or Office 365 Personal subscription," Microsoft's Office 365 team writes on a support page.
In a separate support document, Microsoft confirms that current Outlook.com Premium subscribers will continue to receive the original features and even renew their subscriptions. This highlights that the company is currently not in plans to discontinue the standalone subscription for its existing subscribers.

Google Assistant will soon be on a billion devices, and feature phones are next

As CES kicks off, Google has a massive presence: monorails, a booth that’s three times larger than last year, and likely a giant pile of news to announce. But ahead of all the actual product news, the company wants to beat its chest a little by announcing some numbers. By the end of the month, it expects that Google Assistant will be on 1 billion devices — up from 500 million this past May. But just like Amazon, Google’s number comes with caveats. In an interview with The Verge , Manuel Bronstein, the company’s vice president of Google Assistant, copped to it. “The largest footprint right now is on phones. On Android devices, we have a very very large footprint,” he says. He characterizes the ratio of phones as “the vast majority” of that billion number, but he won’t specify it more than that. Though he does argue that smart speakers and other connected home devices comprise a notable and growing portion. THE “VAST MAJORITY” OF THOSE BILLION DEVICES ARE ANDROID PHONES In
