Subscription, for money? Ouch... I'm being nickle and dimed by all kinds of things that didn't exist just a year (or 2) ago.
Apple News being the latest. So pay for Podcasts? Will they support the podcasters that I used to listen to that suddenly dropped their content? I was getting in to the whole thing, and loved a bunch of them, and so many would just stop, and some stopped, and their content just disappeared. I was getting in to a bunch of them, and after they disappeared, I just stopped following Podcasts in general.
I get that a lot of it is 'user generated', so I wonder if Apple will help pay people to continue creating content. I hope so. If 'we' have to pay for Podcasts, Apple should pay producers so they can/will keep their channels running. Otherwise, it's just more gravy for Apple's management, and investors.
