This is actually my problem with modern podcasting, or at least Spotify's attempt at it.
As fair as I'm concerned, Spotify does not have podcasts because you cannot give it an RSS feed. They want to redefine what podcasts are so they can be that app store, take their cut, and control what was previous a great open landscape.
- SilverBirch 3y agoYeah, this is fairly accurate, spotify don't do podcasts. Spotify run a custom audio streaming service that they hoped would kill podcasts (by gaining market share and then fucking people around). Fortunately, the business model looks like it was totally misjudged and they're failing.
- waboremo 3y agoSpotify's handling of local files in general is pretty lackluster, even in comparison to Apple who you might assume would lock things down heavily. So it makes sense their podcast and audiobook handling has also been disappointing.
