The Sideload Episode 23

Welcome to The Sideload episode 23, a 9to5Google podcast. This week, Will welcomes Brady Snyder onto the show for a double‑header conversation. First, Brady and Will discuss the state of streaming media, starting with YouTube TV’s recently‑launched channel packages before expanding to price hikes, hoop‑jumping, and the return of physical media. Then the two turn their attention to Apple Music, a service both use despite their love of Android. What is it that keeps them on a rival’s platform, and is Apple’s Android app good enough to get other users to switch?
