MacVoices #23104: MacVoices Live! - Developer Support and Paywall Jumping (2)

<p><strong>Chuck Joiner</strong>, <strong>David Ginsburg</strong>, <strong>Eric Bolden</strong>, <strong>Jeff Gamet</strong>, <strong>Web Bixby</strong>, <strong>Mark Fuccio</strong>, <strong>Jim Rea</strong>, and <strong>Kelly Guimont</strong> take a look at a couple hot topics. The Apple community has rallied behind the idea of not asking for refunds on Twitter client subscriptions from some high-profile developers, but seem equally comfortable avoiding paywalls. The debate/discussion over the rationale behind these seemingly conflicting attitudes takes center stage. (Part 2) </p>
