what happened to stitcher

Stitcher, a 15-year-old podcast app, has shut down on August 29, 2023. The closure is a result of the parent company, SiriusXM, focusing on incorporating podcasts into its flagship subscription business. SiriusXM, which acquired Stitcher in 2020 for $325 million, will continue to offer Stitchers content to its subscribers, who can now listen to podcasts within the SiriusXM app. The company has also promised an all-new listening experience for its users later this year.
