Time to get out of Google Podcasts for anyone that is still using the service.

Cheap? Unless someone snagged Pocketcasts when it was still a one off payment app, it is NOT cheap. Heck, I can pay for YouTube Premium, Spotify Premium and still have money left for one more streaming service to plug into before I hit what Pocketcasts wants me to pay. The app is good but it is the very antithesis of cheap.

Wow, that's odd.

I'm paying 119 SEK/year for the Plus tier, which is the result of a price raise some time ago as well. But I see now that it's 533 SEK/year all of a sudden for new customers.

Still, that's not too expensive, honestly. If you need the features, it's pretty good.

I don't, so I won't pay that amount of my account is put on that price point...
