Macvoices Audio

This MacVoices Live! session concludes with a discussion of Spotify's new audiobook library and Samsung's pursuit of blue bubbles in messaging. The appeal and limitations of Spotify's 15-hour monthly allowance for audiobooks is debated as is Spotify's plan to use AI voices and its ability to compete with Audible, Amazon, and Apple. Chuck Joiner, Guy Serle, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Ben Roethig, Jim Rea, Mark Fuccio, and Web Bixby finish up with a conversation about the ongoing competition in messaging services and Samsung trying to push Apple into a message standard.
