‘Podcasts have remained free far longer than they should have (per unit of output, they are a relatively expensive form of journalism) because of the lack of sophistication hard-coded into their DNA.
But the end of the RSS era, the end of Podcasting 1.0, has made it harder to justify the assumption that a podcast should be free at the point of access. And if podcasts aren’t free, what is?’

Thanks Bumi - I just emailed - tldr as a user I'd expect existing api access to be managed in the portal where it was before.
Also did not need to go through a user oauth process back when I created my initial token, since my use case is simple access to my own single wallet. Pretty much every service has a simplified path for that use case - again usually just provisioning a token in the portal.

heads up @npub1ln5…xyw6 a wordpress/powerpress site just added a bunch of essentially dup podcasts to the index - not sure how you want to handle it
https://podcastindex.org/search?q=america%20out%20loud&type=all
this goes back to our favorite question: what is a podcast index podcast?
trying to work around these for many years now, at the point where it should be uncontroversial to say that wordpress/powerpress is a very strong signal of a garbage setup, vast majority of invalid xml/tags/configuration/duplicates come from there
