[QUOTE="Whizbang Dustyboots, post: 8778033, member: 11760"] I use Audible for podcasts. While there are many things to be concerned about with Amazon, their book and audiobook (and now, comics) businesses going under is not one of them. Audible also allows you to permanently download any books in your library, so you can cancel your monthly subscription and just listen to what you own at that point. Podcast apps are very phone-dependent. Apple's Podcast app, if you have an iPhone, is terrible. But there's an abundance of great choices. Lifehacker, Gizmodo and Engadget periodically run round-ups of the best podcast apps. I use an older one, called Downcast, that allows me to build highly customized folders to arrange my podcasts, like one for my morning commute, others for what I listen to during the workday, others for music, etc. Also note that many music streaming services are starting to slurp up podcasts and only make their podcasts available through their apps. Spotify has a ton of podcasts (most famously/infamously Joe Rogan) signed to their platform, for instance. So if you know which podcasts you want to listen to, that might guide you toward one app or another, based on exclusivity deals. (I don't like exclusive podcasts, myself, so I am boycotting Spotify, which means I've missed out on the last few seasons of the great Every Little Thing podcast, for instance.) [/QUOTE]
