July 13, 2013 — Adam Engst and Bryan Chaffin

We focus a large part of the episode on Apple’s skirmish with the U.S. Department of Justice over alleged eBook price fixing. Federal District Court Judge Denise L. Cote has found Apple guilty; Apple plans to appeal. But was this decision fair? What about Amazon, and why wasn’t that company’s actions to set very low eBook prices considered by antitrust officials?

We have two points of view on this case, from Adam Engst, of TidBITS and Take Control Books, and Bryan Chaffin, co-founder and co-publisher of The Mac Observer. Bryan will also discuss Microsoft’s latest version of corporate musical chairs, and whether it will help the company regroup and solve key long-term problems. He’ll also go over the key points of an article claiming that there are 25 reasons why the iPhone is old fashioned.
