> I have noticed Spotify trying to funnel a decentralized podcasting ecosystem based on RSS into their own walled garden So did I and I did something about it: https://github.com/Yetangitu/Spodcast https://github.com/Yetangitu/Spodcast Spodcast is a caching Spotify podcast to RSS proxy. Using Spodcast you can follow Spotify-hosted netcasts/podcasts using any player which supports RSS, thus enabling the use of older hardware which is not compatible with the Spotify (web) app. Spodcast consists of the main Spodcast application - a Python 3 command line tool - and a PHP-based RSS feed generator. It uses the librespot-python library to access the Spotift API. To use Spodcast you need a (free) Spotify account. Spodcast only supports the Spotify podcast service, it does not interface with the music streaming service.
