@caseyliss @Penultimate I’m proud of the work we’ve done around tags like <podcast:transcript> (which Apple Podcasts just adopted), <podcast:liveItem>, <podcast:socialInteract>, <podcast:medium>, <podcast:chat>, etc. Those are features RSS didn’t have natively and were worth the few years of effort we put into them.
The biggest knock against RSS podcasting is that closed systems (it was Spotify, now it’s YouTube) have more/better features. Our entire goal is to make that argument moot.
