    Holy shit that price is just insane. No one is going to be willing to pay that when Spotify is cheaper by a lot…

      Do people really use Spotify for podcasts? I don’t find it a great experience. Pocket Casts seems to be solid as a free app along with other alternatives (including open-source).

      Spotify is 10 a month for a normal subscription, so Pocket Casts is roughly a third of that for one year. I don’t like Spotify for podcasts at all but it is a big part of the service nowadays. Still awfully expensive for Pocket Casts when you consider that it is just for podcasts and no music - unlike Spotify.

      You don’t need to pay for the subscription to use PocketCasts for podcasts. There is a free version that does everything you would need it to.
