I started using Pocket Casts last year when it was $10 per year. This year they first raised it to $15 per year, and now it is $40 per year. That is too much in my opinion. I've had enough with services that nearly always get worse, so I am now using AntennaPod. It is a free open source Android app that doesn't need accounts or subscriptions.
Ah. Yeah, that's a bit pricier than it used to be. I do think their web version was worth the money, and I'd probably still subscribe for it if I didn't buy the services outright back in the day. I'd say it would depend on how one uses it though. If it's just used as an app, then I'd choose something else. The web service is golden though.
Back in the day I used to like AntennaPod, but I have had my pocket casts service for so long that I can't say if anything is good these days.
