This MacVoices session covers a lot of ground. Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Marty Jencius, Jim Rea, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden and Brian Flanigan-Arthurs touch on the challenges of Passkeys adoption, expressing skepticism about their feasibility due to compatibility issues and system fragmentation. Next, more on the John Stewart/Apple break-up and  Spotify's rumored decision to charge for lossless music vs  Apple's approach. The session wraps up with streaming platforms like Peacock raising rates (again), and the continuation of Apple TV+ hit, "Godzilla: Legacy of Monsters.”  MacVoices is supported by ExpressVPN, the VPN that just works. MacVoices viewers and listeners get 3 months free with a 12-month package at ExpressVPN.com/macvoices.
