This MacVoices Live! panel looks at the shutdown of a mobile app store experiment, Spotify's latest price increase, and a wide-ranging debate over AI-generated music and art. Chuck Joiner, David Ginsburg, Eric Bolden, Marty Jencius, Web Bixby, Jim Rea, and Jeff Gamet consider a variety of factors for each, including user behavior, platform economics, artist compensation, and whether machine-generated content can truly be considered art, raising questions about creativity, intent, and how it all affects the future of media.
