While I am sure this is likely to push people towards YouTube premium subscriptions, I feel like Podcasts are unique in the way they are consumed that they need a dedicated app.
Otherwise we end up with either a bloated YouTube app or an even more confusing "Youtube Podcasts" app (then YouTube music, YouTube videos, and YouTube whatever google decides to abandon next).
Would be a good time for Apple to maybe advertise Apple Podcasts some more.
Edit: Also why isnt this migration just done for you? So your data is there if/when you decide to try youtube podcasts.

It is one of the weirdest media apps I've used in a long time. Never fully fit for purpose, always "okay, somehow works".
- dageshi 3y agoI'm betting there's weird licensing issues around music on youtube that means google has to have a separate app for it.
