Dan Frakes joins in the discussion about iTunes 12, the problems, and what you can do about it. Is it the future of music management on the Apple platform, or a misstep? Microsoft announced that they were making their Office apps for iPad and iPhone free…but is it too little too late? What was their real motivation? Dan looks at those questions, talks about what he’s doing now, and why the iMac 5K is amazing, even if he is using it mainly for text.
