  Sprint, looking ahead to merger with T

  

  Sprint continues to chug along with modest customer growth. Not that it really matters.  For the quarter just ended, the Overland Park, Kansas, wireless carrier posted total customer growth of 57,000 net new customers and, most importantly, 87,000 net new phone customers in the lucrative postpaid category.  But ultimately, the results, announced Wednesday, are less relevant than its pending merger …

  Here’s how MoviePass works

  

  MoviePass has been in the news lately — a lot. Back in March, the company’s already-impressive $9.95-per-month subscription plan dropped to $6.95 (but then went back up).
