Gregory's Server@jaredwhite is the complaint that the term shouldn’t apply if the feed has items exclusive to a channel or that such exclusivity shouldn’t exist?

@jaredwhite I don’t know, that sounds a little pedantic. What most people mean when they say or hear “podcast” probably doesn’t align perfectly with original idea of RSS with attachments downloaded to an iPod, but they understand what it means today. Unfortunately words & terms mean what most people use them to mean; which doesn’t always stay true to first use. I understand why that can rankle, though. |
@causticmsngo I'm not complaining, I'm just explaining what the format actually is.
Let's say some company came up with an app which lets you read "blogs" and has exclusive "blogs" you can subscribe to…yet those blogs are inexcessible through web browsers, don't use HTML, and don't provide any news feeds. Are they actually blogs?
Nope.
