Comment on When did paid podcasts become a thing?

I’m old enough to have known the internet before the ads, and there were a ton of forums where you’d find both information and help for free. Obviously most hobby stuff but still.

I listened to podcasts about roguelikes for example, and hanged out on the popular video game dev forums and it was all free and good.

Serious question: what is the content people create that is so costly today?

I mean it’s nice if you can live off your hobby expertise but there’s also a question about monetising like everything? Or what am I missing :-) ?
