So after stalking this sub for long amount of time, I decided to build a podcast hosting platform. I have the landing page ready and will be validating the idea. Oh and it's just $10/mo for unlimited and uploads and downloads. So if you're ever planning to start your own podcast, hop on ;-)
In your market research I'm sure you'e come across Transistor.fm (https://transistor.fm/); what makes your service different?
We are planning to offer editing tool as well in the future so people don't have to use Audacity or other tools to edit podcasts.
Wow $10 a month is pretty good. As someone who's getting into the podcast space, I shall be following your progress and might ask you for some advice at a later time.
