MacVoices #22108: MacVoices Live! - An Echo Show Competitor; Video Music Picks (3)

<p>This MacVoices Live! panel wraps up with some discussion of a possible Apple challenger to the Echo Show and Google Nest Hub. Could a dedicated iPad be just as effective? Then, we have a little fun in follow-up to a previous discussion as the panel of <strong>Jeff Butts</strong>, <strong>David Ginsburg</strong>, <strong>Brittany Smith</strong>, <strong>Jeff Gamet</strong>, <strong>Warren Sklar</strong>, <strong>Frank Petrie</strong>, and <strong>Jim Rea</strong> pick one music video to share. There are some serious surprises in those picks. (Part 3) </p>
