podcast
This news comes from an internal source as reported in the well-known medium, Bloomberg, which states that Apple is having several meetings with podcast producers so that they create original content for their Apple TV + series. All this seems one more strategy of the Cupertino company to promote their content and follow the steps being taken by other video platforms such as Disney +, Netflix or Hulu that already have their own podcast shows in which they talk about new releases and comment on the content they offer from within.
It has been clear for a long time that the monetization of podcasts is something that is closely linked to the producers themselves and to the exclusive content of some platforms, so with this move by Apple the company could open the door to it and make « the podcasters 'escape' to platforms where they can earn income for your podcasts is less. It should be remembered that Spotify in the United States or iVoox in our country already offer to monetize the content and this is exclusive.
Be that as it may, Apple seems to be planning to create a section for original podcasts and this may or may not benefit other podcasters in the future. All this has to run its course that you already know that Apple is not fast at all, yes, from one day to the next you find everything set up to work. Also missing official confirmation, remember that this is something that comes from Bloomberg without being confirmed so we will remain pending.
