Paying for access to Loveline; Why I think that is wrong

There is a station in the UK that charges about £4 a month for unlimited podcasts, and I think that is a fair price.

Sorry if this is a repeat post, but here's a list of stations/times for streaming loveline:

I have to weigh in and also say I'm not a fan of the pay per show model. I don't want to commit to a year. I want people to make money, but $45 is steep.
You can do it by the month. I pay $5/month.

That price (25 cents a show) is pretty hard to argue with.

I wish there was a mechanism to do it through iTunes store rather than having to go through the extra hassle of some website (or, as I keep saying, I wish there was a voluntary subscription system so people could still listen for free with no hassle and those who want to pay can easily do so).

Why don't you say it one more time. There may be one person (on the planet) who hasn't heard you yet.

I still think it's a fair price and there's nothing wrong with charging for the shows. It does suck for teens; however, teens have been listening to the show for 20 years the old fashioned way. It's not like they don't have access to it at all.

actually I don't care one way or another about charging for Loveline w/ Stryker and Drew

Adam's podcast on the other hand I'd be annoyed if it's inconvenient; I like being able to subscribe once in iTunes and just have things work

I have the yearly membership to Loveline. I would've done the $5 dollars a month but it's easier for me to pay $50 dollars a year. To me $50 bucks a year isn't that bad and I to, think it's a fair price. About a month or so ago, I just got the podcasts for the older Loveline from Itunes. I listen to those on the nights that Loveline isn't live usually.

$50 bucks is a little too much.

you're shitting me right?

50 bucks is 4.10 a month or about a buck a week or around 20 cents a show

if that's really too much for you then you need to seriously reevaluate your life
