MacVoices #24252: TV+ Talk - Apple TV+ On Amazon Prime and A New Vision Pro Movie

Charlotte Henry and Chuck Joiner use this edition of TV+ Talk to discuss the surprising agreement between Amazon and Apple that will put Apple TV+ on Amazon Prime Video. Are there winners and losers in this development, and what affect will it have on how you sign up for the service? What are the financial arrangements between the two streaming players? Charlotte and Chuck also talk about the new movie that was shot with the Apple Vision Pro in mind and why one of them isn’t interested in seeing it.
