Podcasting is a distributed medium, that's something the individual distributor has to solve for the podcasts they do - it could be just a single one for example. They know what they produce and can budget storage thereafter. Bandwidth is the unpredictable part in that equation.
- dartos 3y agoIs podcasting distributed, really? Podcasting happens wherever a podcast publishing platform like anchor uploads the audio (YouTube, Apple Music, Spotify, etc.) Otherwise discoverability is difficult. Sure you can host your own audio and video files, but who will find it. The network effect is a tough nut to crack.
- kzrdude 3y agoThe majority of podcasts I listen to have their RSS feeds on a domain that they control. And I've found them by podcast search in Antennapod. It looks like, to me, that the space is sufficiently diversified that distributors are interchangeable, and that's great.
