[All Platforms][Podcasts] Add comments to podcasts!

[n8tewill]

I’ve been listening to Podcasts for a year or two now and one of the biggest components of a great podcast is the comment section.

This is vital for a podcasts success because the comment section is where a podcasts community can connect with each other, which gives the podcast a little bit of flavor

If Spotify can add a comment section to its podcasts page, then it will most definitely kill YouTube podcasting and give you guys most of the market share 😉

and i know you guys love market share

I do not use itunes for podcast for multiple reasons. I listen to my fvaorite podcast vie websites or through spotify. I still primarily use website to listen because of the baiklity to comment and communicate with the podcasters. Maybe commenting is something to look into. I know I defintiely would tak advanatge of that.

I think you should be able to add comments on people’s podcast. Be able to start conversations with others and give feedback and talk about the content within the podcasts some podcasts leave you wondering what other people thought of the same topic. Why not chat about it with others and share opinions

I also really think that this should be implemented. I think it would encourage a lot more people (such as myself) to create interactive podcasts, and really grow the spotify community as well. For example, I really want to create a podcast that would require engagement from the community to ask questions about my lifestyle that I can answer. Because there is no comment section, however, I am looking at starting it on other platforms, though Spotify would be the ideal one for me.

Allow Spotifier’s to punch in and out with comments on the Seekbar for Podcasts/music. People could post the section they’re commenting onto to begin a thread or post on social media. Also, you could allow users to create playlist with only sections by using the punch in and out function.

Hi... half the fun with Joe Rogan Experience is reading the comments and sharing with each other.  There is also the timeline guy that gives detail of conversation to each of Joe's experiences.  Maybe you'd have to monitor it, and that's why you don't want to do it.   aaaah  oh well  lemme know if you change your minds but my experience with Joe has been diminished.  You have a new subscriber though  : D

Yer there is a few things Spotify need to do to make bank on their the investment or people will pirate it.

So many JRE fans will be loosing the ability to enjoy the JRE the way they are used to when it's exclusive to Spotify. Currently you can not:
1. get Video on a smart tv app, 
2. cast video from mobile to smart tv app, 3. stream Audio only (disable video) from mobile app (to use less data/reduce battery drain) for those who only listen to the JRE.
4. Make/ read comments...
