Native Podcast Support on WP8

[Rising Mos]

Hi all first post here!

I just noticed that podcast have been added to the store. I am running Lumia 920 on At&t. Anyone noticed that too?

It is in the store. Not tried it though. Any good?

Looks nice. They could add some improvements though. I want to see backgrounds. Also for some reason, I can't download BBC discovery. It just says pending. I can stream it though!

They just need to fix the kinks. But I am surprised that they just added it like that without advertising. Maybe they are testing right now.

I'm confused. This has been there since WP7. Unless you're talking about something else?

 

[Rising Mos]

Yes. It is in wp7. But they didn't put it in wp8 (probably because of time constraints). Now it is on wp8 too.

EDIT: I read around that there was always native support for podcast in the US. But for me, it never appeared in the store until today! 

Did you just recently move your account to the US or something?

 

[Rising Mos]

Oh man, you are right. I just migrated my Xbox live account from Canada to US.

My Microsoft account was always US but the Xbox one was Canada since I was living in Canada when I created it.

Nothing in the UK Podcaster is a pretty nice app though.
