I can't believe I didn't notice right away that this "article" is a native ad for Spotify. Ugh.
Meanwhile, the open podcast ecosystem keeps getting better instead of dying off like Spotify and Apple wish it would. [Podcast Index] and the Podcasting 2.0 ecosystem around it is helping keep podcasting free and open.

- bscphil 5y agoIs it really? Is there evidence of this? (Honestly asking, I'm curious about the prevalence of native advertising and astroturfing.) From their about page, the author appears to work for Oracle and has a similar article praising an Apple product that I remember doing big numbers here at HN when it came out.
