By using its proprietary platform and the Anchor hosting service, Spotify aims to create a "walled garden" featuring interactive tools like Q&A and polls. This strategy is criticized as an attempt to monopolize the medium and collect more user data for advertising, ignoring the open standards of Podcasting 2.0.

Exclusive subscription platforms are predicted to fail because they limit discovery and break the community bond essential to the medium. The segment argues that podcasting cannot be monetized like traditional television or music through intermediaries.
