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

    FFS Google’s killing another app I use all the time

    At this rate I half expect Google Play books to be dead before 2025

      YouTube Podcasts coming to the YouTube Music app delivered to you by the Google Play game delivery app!

        I’ve tried to listen to some podcasts on YouTube music. It really doesn’t work well compared to Pocket Casts. They need to separate the music and podcasts more clearly and make managing podcast playlists more intuitive

          My favorite part of YT Music is how it’s a terrible interface for YT videos. Second favorite part is the total mixing of music playlists and video playlists.

        Sounds smart might give it a go, but why not simply download epub direct from an ebooks retailer?

        I’m not sure what an ACSM file is, think you could give me a TLDR?

          My understanding is it is a file linked to your account that links to the epub file. It lets you and only you download your copy of the epub file you purchased.

      Is there a way to download any books bought as pdfs?

        I don’t believe so

        I tried to figure out how to through the app but I unfortunately couldn’t find anything

          Or even download them so I can view them outside of the play app?

        I’ll have to check this out for sure as I primarily listen to audiobooks rather than reading physical books or reading ebooks

        They’re just so much more convenient with my shitty work schedule
