Google announces April 2024 shutdown date for Google Podcasts
(arstechnica.com)
This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Every single thing I use gets changed, ruined, shut down, canceled, moved, merged. It never ends.
Wound up giving up and using Google podcast BECAUSE other ones I used kept getting shut down.
Pocket Casts has been reliable for me for years. I don't even use their pro features, but I pay anyway because it's so cheap. Highly recommended.
Cheap? Unless someone snagged Pocketcasts when it was still a one off payment app, it is NOT cheap. Heck, I can pay for YouTube Premium, Spotify Premium and still have money left for one more streaming service to plug into before I hit what Pocketcasts wants me to pay. The app is good but it is the very antithesis of cheap.
Wow, that's odd.
I'm paying 119 SEK/year for the Plus tier, which is the result of a price raise some time ago as well. But I see now that it's 533 SEK/year all of a sudden for new customers.
Still, that's not too expensive, honestly. If you need the features, it's pretty good.
I don't, so I won't pay that amount of my account is put on that price point...
