PNR 105: Does Dollar Shave Club's Content Launch Have Transparency Issues?

In this week's episode, Joe and Robert discuss why YouTube has a leg up on the streaming music business, and someone actually wants to kill the term native advertising.  Dollar Shave Club launches a new content marketing program called MEL, and the boys fight over whether it's transparent enough.  Rants and raves include NYTimes Virtual Reality project and a Wharton article.  This week's TOM example: Fold Factory.
