I pay Spotify a monthly fee to allow me listen to anything from their music buffet. I pay Netflix to watch anything from their video buffet.
However, my number one source is entertainment is podcasts - and there's no way to pay for the media I consume. Sure there's Patreon - but with every individual podcast begging me for $10 each month, that's ruinous.
We need a platform that will charge listeners a fee and distribute that money to creators.
