Latest news
- Jun 1: Adam Curry and Dave Jones discussed the news of the formation of the Alliance for Measurement in Podcasting in the Podcasting 2.0 podcast. The solution is, they suggest, cutting podcast app developers in on ad revenue (as, to an extent, Apple Podcasts is already doing with their HLS video), in return for better first-party data. The guest this week is Mike Dell from Blubrry.
- May 28: Smart TVs are the new place to watch podcasts, according to new data released this week from Signal Hill Insights and FlightStory - with almost half of UK podcast consumers using their smartTV to watch podcasts. The data suggests that podcasts are competing directly with linear TV and streaming, and most consumption happens 7pm-11pm. It's, says Paul Riismandel, "a fundamental shift in how UK audiences are spending their evenings." FlightStory also released its own data alongside the study. (Of note: while you can watch Spotify video podcasts, Apple Podcasts has no support for video on TV as yet - and, unlike Apple TV, doesn't have an app on other platforms.)
- May 27: While video was launched on Apple Podcasts earlier this year, it's currently not possible to offer paid subscribers on Apple Podcasts any access to video.
- May 25: If the transcripts in Apple Podcasts don't spell your name very well, you might want to produce your own. Here's how Apple Podcasts transcripts work.
- May 22: Memberships (which "will launch for select creators soon") appears to be an equivalent to Supporting Cast, Patreon or Apple Podcasts Premium Subscriptions. Pricing and details weren't given.
