Learning Guitar, Email Trouble and Giggles

Adrian Burton, founder of eMedia Music Corporation, joins us to talk about My Guitar for kids and their other great products for learning to play an instrument. Vic can't seem to get our email address right, and Jen's got the giggles. We've got a gaggle of tech news, including the Apple shareholder meeting.
