The test for whether it’s a podcast or not is if they say you can get it “Wherever you get your podcasts.” If they can say that, it’s a podcast. If you have to get it from Apple or YouTube or whoever, it’s not a podcast. That’s the rule.
…from Dave Winer on Tuesday, June 4, 2024
I’ve often said “a podcast is media, delivered using open protocols” but Winer’s description makes my technical mumbo-jumbo implicit by describing what being open looks and feels like to the people we’re serving.
Nice.
