Episode notes

The second part of our MacVoices Live! conversation with featured guest Michael E. Cohen and the panel of Mark Fuccio, David Ginsburg, Frank Petrie, and host Chuck Joiner wrapped up our discussion of the on-going App Store saga with some interesting parallels to other industries. Then, we turn to the history of eBooks, and Michael’s history with their predecessors such as HyperCard and CD-ROMs, how hardware changes have affected ebooks, and what some of the unappreciated details it takes to make them look “right”.
