• In the UK, Crowd Network has seen revenues grow by over 80% for the fourth consecutive year, the company says. The buzz around the podcast network includes live shows, video-first podcasts, and award nominations.
• Is Apple Podcasts getting more popular? Libsyn posted another small increase in share-of-download for Apple Podcasts for November 2024, up to 46.9%. (However, any episodes uploaded as video to Spotify won’t count in these figures, even if only listened in audio form).
• Something we didn’t spot at the time: SXM Media withdrew from the US Triton Digital ranker in October. We gather another large publisher is out of Triton’s ranker from Jan 1. Triton Digital is owned by a competing podcast network: iHeart, and in New York, the company moved into iHeart’s offices in November.
