Hi Buzz Crew! I was listening to the podcast of episode 1414 and the short discussion about the Apple’s rebranding of Intel’s Light Peak technology. I agree with Molly and disagree with Brian about “”not being a big deal”". A brand is a promise and an identity. People identify brands and have an expectation about it, good or bad. Apple had a problem with other manufacturers taking their software technology and creating Mac clones years ago, saying “”that damages our brand and what our customers expect from Mac OS and Apple computers”", so all the Mac clones disappeared soon after that. So, why is Apple rebranding a technology that’s not theirs? Even if it was a “”partnership”", the action confuses customers and creates a sense of “”exclusivity”" for Apple products, when in reality, the tec

Love the show! —– Hi Buzz crew, So I went on Amazon Video on Demand last night to use the new streaming service on Amazon and discovered something very interesting. You mentioned that the streaming service isn’t for the free college Prime account, but it’s also not available for shared accounts. My dad has the primary Prime account (the one who pays the $79) and he shares it with me. Apparently, only the primary account gets access to the free streaming. Everyone else (even shared accounts) must separately pay the $79 a year to get the streaming. Amazon fail? Love the show!
