Why Google's Android OS is not all that open: Tech Weekly podcast

This week on Tech Weekly with Aleks Krotoski we hear from Benjamin Edelman, associate professor at Harvard Business School and an expert in the public and private forces that shape our internet architecture and the business climate it creates. Edelman tells Charles Arthur about his research into the opaque licensing of Android and the little known Mobile Application Distribution Agreements, known as MADA contracts. He questions these contracts and their effect on a mobile handset market where Google's Android is such a dominant player.
