About the podcast hosting category
Podcast hosts meter different things: upload hours, uploaded bytes, downloads, private listeners or shows. Compare the same publishing schedule and audience requirements, including archive retention and overages.
How to choose: buying criteria for podcast hosting
Count episodes, actual file sizes, downloads, shows, collaborators and private subscribers. Check migration and RSS redirect support, destination requirements, analytics definitions and retention. A file-size allowance cannot be converted into hours without a bitrate assumption.
