Google To Bring Podcast Support To Play Music

Browsing in smartphone/Pixabay

Google is now allowing podcast creators to upload their shows on its Play Music platform. According to Re/code, Google Play users will be able to listen to these podcasts in the coming months, which could be the first of its kind in the Android market that would directly challenge Apple’s dominance.

“Today we’re launching a portal for podcasters to start uploading their shows to Google Play Music before we open up the service to listeners. Along with direct searches and browsing for podcasts, the service will connect new listeners with podcasts based on what they’re doing, how they’re feeling, or what they’re interested in,” the Alphabet company announced in a blog post.

Although Google has not advised when it will make these podcasts public for subscription and download, but the features will reportedly be available in both iOS and Android versions of the Google Play Music app, PC World said.
