The struggle between the EU and Apple continues as the EU keeps changing their mind as to what will satisfy them. This time, Apple has announced the availability of a direct download from developers’ web sites. The MacVoices Live! panel of David Ginsburg, Brian Flanigan-Arthurs, Mark Fuccio, Chuck Joiner, Marty Jencius, Ben Roethig, Jim Rea, Jeff Gamet, Eric Bolden, and Web Bixby discusses and debates this new development, how it relates to the previous skirmishes, and the rules surrounding the option.
