MacNotables #1018: Jason Snell on Google TV vs. Apple TV, Why TV is Difficult, The iPad as TV, The Flash Debate and More

Jason Snell, the Editorial Director of Macworld, comments on the current state of TV, including why it is such a mess, what the newly announced Google TV means for consumers in general and Apple TV in particular, and where the iPad fits in. 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.
