Good news from TuneIn: after closing podcast submissions in Feb 2024, TuneIn now appears to be accepting new podcast listings once more. You can just use TuneIn's broadcaster portal; the directory has all of our shows there (here's our daily podcast). The directory is the default way into Tesla cars, Sonos speakers and many more places; when we last covered TuneIn in Dec 2024, we revealed mass layoffs at the company; but it was acquired by radio and podcast producer Stingray in Nov 2025.
Exclusive: Libsyn and Buzzsprout have signed up with Apple Podcasts to distribute HLS video.
- Brendan Monaghan, President & CEO, Libsyn, said: “We view video as a natural progression for podcasting — giving creators more ways to engage audiences, deepen storytelling, and grow their businesses. This partnership aligns directly with our vision, as Libsyn continues building a next-gen platform, enabling creators to publish seamlessly across formats, distribute everywhere, and monetize more effectively than ever before.”
- Alban Brooke, Head of Marketing at Buzzsprout, said: “We’re excited to bring Apple Podcasts video distribution to Buzzsprout. HLS gives podcasters a great way to publish video to Apple Podcasts and makes it easy for people to listen or watch.”
- All top-10 podcast hosting companies now support HLS video, with one exception: Spotify for Creators/Megaphone. (Users of Triton Digital’s Spreaker can upgrade to Omny Studio). Most of these hosting companies, however, are not publishing pricing for video hosting, and support appears to be invite-only.
