Macworld Podcast Mailbag 

We’ve been getting emails about the new podcast format, and please, keep them coming. We really appreciate the feedback and take it to heart. For example:

Why “unafraid”? I have to say it makes me cringe each time I hear it. What do you have to be afraid of? No disrespect, but you’re not some news organization uncovering a massive government cover-up and therefore have to worry about retribution. What’s the worst that could happen to you guys, Apple stops sending you devices to review?
