Acquisition spend on podcasting by Spotify 2019-2020

Published by Patrick Leu, May 29, 2024
Between February 2019 and 2020, Spotify spent 600 million U.S. dollars on podcast-related acquistions, including 195 million on Gimlet Media and 196 million on sports podcast 'The Ringer' by Bill Simmons. Amazon is also planning to invest heavily in podcasting, which will likely make the market even more competitive in years to come.
