Podcast platform Stitcher is shutting down in two months
There are a ton of podcast platforms out there to listen to your favorite shows. As new ones pop up, others fade into the sunset. This is the story for the podcast platform Stitcher. According to Engadget, Stitcher is going to be shutting down pretty soon.
This is the platform that’s owned by SiriusXM. Stitcher has been around for some time, and it provided a platform for a bunch of small-time creators to get their start. While it’s a great platform, we can’t deny that it has some serious competition. Platforms like Pocket Cast and Spotify have amassed a ton of listeners, and it is hard to compete with platforms such as those.
Stitcher is shutting down soon
This news came from an announcement from SiriusXM itself. Folks who use Stitcher will have until August 29th to find another podcast platform to listen to. That’s just over two months from now, and you’re sure to find one by then. The only issue is that you will need to find another platform to track down all of your favorite shows. Most shows exist on more than one platform, however.
What’s more tedious than finding a new platform to listen to podcasts is finding a new one to host your show. If you have a show on Stitcher, then you’ll need to find a new platform and rebuild your following. That will be a pain in the neck. If you do own a show, then you’d best start making preparations now.
While this isn’t the best news, It’s not all bad. This is a move by SiriusXM to incorporate podcasts into its main subscription service. Listeners will have access to podcasts through the main SiriusXM app. So, Stitcher seems redundant when the company will be hosting podcasts on its platform.
Unfortunately, it doesn’t seem that SiriusXM is going to migrate Stitcher podcasts to its main service. The company suggested that you follow your favorite podcasts on social media to see where they’ll be going next.
