Google Podcasts to shut down in 2024

Welp, another Google service that was too beautiful for this world.

Time to move my subscriptions to other podcatcher then. [taking a quick look at various migration options] Hmmm. What to write on Google Podcasts gravestone? "Here lies Google Podcasts. It never supported OPML."

with listeners migrated to YouTube Music

Damn. I migrated my Google Play Music purchases to YouTube Music and to this day I have no idea where they actually went. If I hadn't downloaded the local MP3 copies with the terrible joke of a client software they had, I'd have been screwed. Went back to just buying music on iTunes.
