Manage episode 432766865 series 135
Today on the flagship podcast of what the future of Kindle turns out to be:
We’re once again trying out a couple of our favorite new show formats.
In Version History, we talk through the whole story of Quibi, from its early days as NewTV to its extremely ill-timed launch to its ultimate demise.
- From Variety: Quibi Has Raised $1.75B After Closing $750M Round to Fund Launch
- From Variety: Jeffrey Katzenberg’s NewTV Closes $1B, Major Studios Among Investors
- Quibi’s CES 2020 launch
- Quibi app review: short-form streaming in a shifting landscape
- Steven Spielberg is writing a horror series you’ll only be able to at night
- Quibi’s Super Bowl 2020 commercial
- From The Wall Street Journal: Jeffrey Katzenberg and Meg Whitman Struggle With Their Startup—and Each Other
- How Quibi imploded less than six months after launch
- 11 reasons why Quibi crashed and burned in less than a year
Next, we try out our as-yet-untitled debate show. The Verge’s Kevin Nguyen and Alex Cranz take on a surprisingly contentious topic: is the future of books print or digital?
- The Boox Palma is an amazing gadget I didn’t even know I wanted
- Kobo’s great color e-readers are held back by lock-in
- From The Wall Street Journal: How the Kindle Became a Must-Have Accessory (Again)
- The Playdate makes a surprisingly good e-reader
Later, producer Andru Marino answers a question from The Vergecast Hotline about a very unusual shopping situation for MP3 players.
- NW-E394 Walkman Digital Music Player
- Mighty’s ‘iPod shuffle for Spotify’ gets upgraded battery and Bluetooth
