The talk of the Apple community

<p>Part 2 of our discussion with <a href="https://www.macobserver.com/show/tmo-daily-observations/"><strong>The Mac Observer’s Daily Observations Podcast</strong></a> hosts <strong>Bryan Chaffin</strong>, <strong>Kelly Guimont</strong>, and <strong>John Martellaro </strong>about Apple’s relationship and obligations to its competitors, investors, and users wraps up in this episode. More examples from other industries, and why they may or may not apply to the App Store and Apple’s platform, the options competitors have, and why the legal, realistic, and idealistic positions don’t, and probably can’t, line up. </p>
