Just one persons experience, obviously, but I have paid for podcasts before. Free podcasts are by far the majority of what I have listened to, but I pay to get the full episodes of "The NoSleep podcast", and have donated to other podcasts when they have the option there and I have liked them enough.
- falicon 11y agoCool - but do you feel like you are paying for the content or are you paying for the experience/environment that you listen to the podcast within? My point was just that when people do pay, in their mind I think they are paying for the podcast itself...and don't really care all that much about the middle men (same basic thing with music really -- there are, of course, exceptions)
- untothebreach 11y agoOh, I see. No, I am definitely not paying for the experience/environment per se, but I did pay for a podcast app that had features that I wanted. I.e., the most popular free podcast app on Android (Stitcher) didn't have any way to speed up the audio, cut silence, etc, so I paid for an app that did have those features. Maybe it does now, this was a while ago
