PROBLEM: On Monday it was announced that Cleveland Cavaliers forward LeBron James has signed a lifetime contract with Nike. It is believed to be the first deal American sportwear giant's kind, with the 30-year-old's contract worth up to $500million (£333m). Sportsmail assesses what does the enormity of the four-time MVP's deal with Nike now means for those concerned. Nike's eye-watering deal to James' is based on the assumption that he will stay scandal-free throughout the rest of his career, as well as have staying power in the many years of his life when he is no longer an active player. The sportswear company will probably base their James' model on the success of their partnership with Michael Jordan.LeBron James has signed a lifetime contract with apparel giant NikeHe previously signed a contract with Nike before graduating high schoolJames has won two NBA titles and two Olympic golds during his career30-year-old's signature Nike shoe set to surpass $400m (£265m) for 2015

PROBLEM: (CNN) -- The age rating for new mobile video-sharing app Vine has been raised to 17+, meaning appropriate for users 17 and older, after it was flooded with pornographic images. Since its launch two weeks ago, the Twitter-owned Vine had been rated 12+ in Apple's App Store, the only place it is currently available. But sexually explicit video clips almost immediately began appearing within the app, including one mistakenly showcased in its "Editor's Picks" section, drawing outrage from some users. The new rating, for such criteria as "frequent/intense sexual content or nudity," means users wishing to download Vine must click on a window promising that they are over 17. There is no age-verification system, however, and nothing to stop younger users from downloading the app.The age rating for new mobile video-sharing app Vine has been raised to 17+Sexually explicit video clips have been appearing within the appSince its launch two weeks ago, the Twitter-owned Vine app had been rated 12+
