Last week, I indicated that I was one step closer to ditching Google Chrome for Microsoft Edge after Microsoft found a workaround to restore background play through its experimental browser, Microsoft Edge Canary. For context, Google recently disabled YouTube’s background play feature on third-party mobile browsers, explaining that the functionality is reserved exclusively for Premium subscribers.
Microsoft is now making the switch to Edge from other browsers more enticing than ever. An in-browser promotion highlights a sweepstakes with a staggering $2 million prize pool. The rewards include a $1 million cash grand prize, three Mercedes-Benz cars, and thousands of instant-win prizes (via Neowin).
