Fruity

In the world of podcasts, some pretty firm social media raspberries are to be heard in the Twittersphere, angry that  "Fortunately with Fi and Jane" will now only be available via the BBC Sounds app.

There's a hint of reconsideration here from the Editor of Radio 4 Interactive.

As one loyal reader points out, if it's only available on one, proprietary app (which doesn't always work outside the UK), it's not really a podcast, is it ?

  1. Originally trailed as EXCLUSIVE but has now got less shouty, almost apologetic.The BBC have a lot in common with Marks and Spencer: well meaning, but have lost sight of their demographic. This inevitably leads to decline, and BBC Sounds is proving this in spades.
