Spotify launches video podcasts worldwide, starting with select creators, letting free and paid users seamlessly move between the video and audio versions
@spotifypodcasts layering video on top of audio/podcast content... def looks like YouTube content being woven into the Spotify UI. I bet they used @JoeRogan content in the prelaunch UI mocks! https://twitter.com/... https://twitter.com/... Alex Kantrowitz / @kantrowitz : Spotify is a good service. Its app sucks. I use it every day and still get lost. This is a hill I will die on. https://twitter.com/... @spotifynews : Starting today, listen to and watch select podcasts with our new video podcast feature. Check it out. https://newsroom.spotify.com/ ... Jessica Bursztynsky / @jbursz : Spotify added another high-profile name to its exclusive podcast library. Addison Rae, who has 50m TikTok subs, could bring a whole new audience to Spotify. So far, Michelle Obama, Joe Rogan and Kim K have agreed to host shows on the streaming platform https://variety.com/... Phillip Molly Malone / @mollyfud : @Techmeme @sarahintampa So, Spotify is getting functionality that Podcatchers like @pocketcasts has had for decades? https://twitter.com/...
my goodness @eldsjal is running the table on podcasting; predict podcasting is a bigger earnings (not revenue) generator for @Spotify than music within 5 years. https://www.techmeme.com/...
For a month or so I've tried using Spotify as my podcast app. It fully sucks. Seemingly at random when I'm listening to music, the next track will be a podcast. In Carplay, sometimes the next button will skip songs instead of jumping ahaed 30 seconds. It's a mess.
everyone can now access video podcasts on spotify, but not every podcaster can upload their own footage. when this eventually rolls out to all creators, i wonder about moderation. video seems harder to police than audio https://www.theverge.com/...
This is a bigger deal than you might realize. Video recordings of podcast interviews have proved enormously popular on YouTube. In fact, several major YouTubers have two separate channels for their podcasts: one for full episodes and one for short clips. https://newsroom.spotify.…
