Absolutely. But it's not really an expansion - they're trying to get people off of music and onto podcasts because those are cheaper for them to serve (so more like an attempt at not having to raise the subscription price). I guess the idea is that all types of audio content have some commonality and somebody who's considering listening to music could also listen to a podcast instead. I don't think this overlap happens for me very often, but maybe it's more often than I think and often enough for them to be worth it. I'll still boycott their podcasts because they're attempting to make proprietary what is currently free.
