Compact disc sales continue to decline, but is the CD’s time really over? Ted talks about where things stand and how the CD will live on for some uses. If CDs are dying, what about movie delivery? Ted had some recent experiences with Ultraviolet and explains the goods and bads of that interaction. To wrap up, Ted and Chuck discuss the degree to which technology has migrated to a media delivery focus.

Find out everything you need to know about the controversy, then hear Ted cover why iCloud, with great potential, isn’t quite as easy to use as he would like.

Going paperless from a news perspective, the goods and bars of some news apps, whether there will be new iPods soon, whether there will be an Apple television at all, and why Apple stopped renting TV shows all figure into the discussion.

Ted discusses the return of buttons to the iPod shuffle, and the loss of them on the iPod nano, whether a touch screen really makes sense at that size, and how Apple is posturing these devices for the future. Ted and host Chuck Joiner also delve into the new Apple TV, the market for online video, frustration with the cost of cable, and what Hollywood and the cable companies are missing. Ted wraps up by providing perspective on Apple’s new music social network, Ping, what works and what doesn’t and for whom.

Ted also discusses two new security concerns you should be aware of, including the new possibility of “tabnapping” in your favorite browser, and his latest adventures in the world of iPad gaming.

Jason also weighs in on the Apple-Adobe-Flash saga, defending his position that Flash is less relevant than it was when the iPhone first came out, and explains his surprise that we’re still talking about it. The conversation wraps up with Jason talking about the how the iPad fits into his life (so far), what apps he uses, and how it is affecting what he and his team do at Macworld.

Ted discusses the issues surrounding tethering of your Apple devices (and AT&T data plans), why the options are what they are, and what may make sense for you. Ted also discusses his experiences in comparing Google Voice with the iPhone’s Visual Voicemail, and why the latter works better for him, the uses, now and in the future of augmented reality apps, and some of the effects of a maturing iPhone platform.
