Before getting into our the big topic of the day, Laura runs down the most popular stories of the day and more from WRALTechWire.com. From there, Jason, Michael and Laura talk about the recent official visits to the Triangle by Amazon execs, the leaked information from those visit, and what locations Amazon visited in the area.

The Regional Transportation Alliance’s Joe Milazzo is this week’s conversation preview and Jason has some big ideas for transit in the Triangle and how we can get people moving faster and better.

The big conversation of the day has to do with the increase in pricing for some of our favorite tech, including mobile apps, social media platforms and Amazon Prime. The team takes on those price hikes and thinks about whether or not they would pay for their favorite free services and how much would they pay for current subscriptions.
