I received an email from Spotify for Podcasters (formerly Anchor) last Thursday. Here’s what the pertinent part of the email said.
Beginning June 2024, we are discontinuing Spotify for Podcasters’ proprietary creation capabilities as we refocus our attention on building the next generation of podcast tools. Specifically, the following features from Spotify for Podcasters will no longer be available for use:
Web recording and editing
Mobile recording and editing
Music + Talk
No changes will be made to already published episodes. These changes will only remove the ability to edit content of published episodes, drafts or publish new episodes with these specific features. As always, you can continue to use Spotify for Podcasters to publish upload-ready audio and video episodes on the web.
From received email.
Ever since I started the Bredemarket podcast, I’ve used Anchor’s and Spotify’s web/mobile recording features, including its “Jupiter” sound effect.
Obviously I could record and edit audio on my own and upload it.
But is it worth it? I still have several months to decide.
Now let me repurpose this post as a podcast episode. (With the Jupiter sound effect.)
