>> why not just use another service instead of Spotify for podcasts?
So... Spotify have been buying popular podcasts outrights and signing exclusivity deals. Those are only on spotify now.
- laputan_machine 5y agoYou misunderstand. My point is "I empathise and am not surprised that people choose to unsubscribe and go elsewhere if people are being given adverts in podcasts" Assume the best, not the worst in peoples arguments, please. Cheers.
- netcan 5y agoMaybe I don't understand still. I wasn't disagreeing with your point. I was adding to it. I agree that if spotify annoy listeners with ads, they'll go elsewhere. Podcasts, unlike music, are (were?) a mostly free media... as in both beer and liberty. Hence... Spotify has been pursuing exclusives ans a solution to the "why should people listen to our ads" problem.
