    How many more years could they have held back on the price hike if they hadn’t blown hundreds of millions on a failed attempt to lock up the podcast industry inside their walled garden.

      That really seems like a stretch. More likely is they don’t, and instead we’re talking about them being bankrupt and people will say they should’ve seen the signs and sprung on exclusivity before Apple (or any other corp of your choice) bought out everyone and killed them.

      Bad take.
