Latest news
- May 29: "Advertisers run multiple attribution systems because media players won't align on how to measure ad response. We can't even agree on a shared definition of a podcast." So says the Alliance for Measurement in Podcasting (AMP) - launched to create "the first podcasting measurement framework". Brought together by Oxford Road, the group, including voting members from Spotify, United Talent Agency, SiriusXM, DraftKings, Libsyn and others, have been working in secret since last summer, driven by what it calls industrywide confusion: both a lack of standardized metrics and disagreement about where podcasts end and social videos (as well as other forms of video) begin. The group suggests that "a billion dollars of demand is sitting on the sidelines"; it plans to introduce a new unified framework for use across audio and video at Oxford Road’s upcoming CAO Summit on July 22nd-23rd at the Terranea Resort in Rancho Palos Verdes CA, USA.
- May 19: Libsyn has announced an exclusive advertising and hosting partnership for the special July 2026 Tour de France coverage of THEMOVE, Lance Armstrong's acclaimed cycling and endurance sports podcast. Libsyn will exclusively host and monetize the special Tour de France episodes airing July 3-26, 2026.
- May 18: Libsyn has appointed Todd Pringle as Vice President of Product. "Pringle will lead product strategy and development across Libsyn’s growing suite of publishing, distribution, monetization, and advertising solutions". He joins from Amazon Music Podcasts, Stitcher and Deezer.
- May 7: It seems that it's unlikely, however, that podcast hosting companies will mention this lock-in. Podigee, which launched Spotify video this week, doesn't even have any documentation about it (they're working on it, they tell us); while Libsyn, who launched Spotify video distribution last week, don't mention this lockin at all. But then - why would they?
