° From MacVoices Live!: FileMaker has announced that its database program will be free for individual users, but is that important? On a new episode, the MacVoices Live! panel of Dave Ginsburg, Warren Sklar, Brittany Smith, Andrew Orr, Jeff Gamet, Patrice Brend’Amour, and Eric Bolden go deep on who will benefit, whether it is a threat to other database developers (including a member of the panel), and whether it means anything for the end user. (Part 3)
