The nearly 10 year old podcast listening app, which originally went for $3.99, can now be downloaded for free. Users interested in customization of the app will be able to upgrade to Pocket Casts Plus for $0.99 per month or $10 per year.

In today’s rapidly evolving audio landscape, it’s important we stand for free and open access – not walled gardens – to grow the medium while delivering the world’s best listening experience.”
