can i just ask why you want this on desktop so badly vs just continuing on your mobile? its not like your phone ceases to exist when you are working on your desktop? just trying to better understand the psyche of users like yourself.


view as:

I like to have certain things available on both platforms. If I am using my laptop, I don't want to have to pull out my phone to listen to podcasts. I want to be able to play and pause on my computer.

I use email and messaging on both platforms, and I wish I could do the same with podcasts.


This sounds a lot like my own usage habits. If I'm using a computer of any sort, I don't want to have to pull out my phone for hardly anything. My phone is for times when a more capable machine isn't readily available.

Can't you make the same argument for any kind of desktop music player? Why have iTunes or a Spotify app when you can just use your phone?
