This week’s top story is the legal Judo coming out of Apple and Creative. Ricky Spero and Jeff Gamet send the companies’ recent settlement through the Context Machine, and find we’ve just seen one of the most clever business maneuvers in tech history. Also: AOL beats iTunes to market in digital movie downloads. Where do we sign up? No, seriously: it’s not clear how to sign up.
The Weekly Roundup will be included in TMO’s main RSS feed, and also in its own feed if you’d like to add it directly to your podcatching client.
