Which in my opinion isn't professional and is biased based on him representing a direct paid competitor of Anchor.

He had an overall condescending tone to elude that if you host on Anchor you're not a serious podcaster. Most podcast don't make it out of single digits when it comes to pod fade regardless of the platform that you host on. Do podcasts that are 'rip offs' on platforms like Blubrry and Libsyn mentioned as such being a rip off on that platform? In sessions at Podcast Movement 2021 in Nashville Rob Walsh VP of Podcaster relations at Libsyn himself had several digs about Anchor when he spoke, like Anchor is the graveyard of podcasts.

Headlines on platforms like Pod News read 'Anchor podcast is a 'shameless rip-off''. The Podcast Industry's Long Time Disdain For Spotify's Anchor.fmĮver since I began podcasting, I've heard from either podcaster or representatives of paid podcast hosting platforms always dogging Anchor with things like Anchor owns your content, anything free comes with a price, and so on and so forth.
