A website or podcast doesn&#39;t need to know who am I and where I am ! kinda  .. &#xA;&#xA;Now here is the fundamental difference ... &#xA;&#xA;rss works on top of http(s) ..which means despite good intent (for anonymity of the subscriber), the construct is superficial .. means a hacker can find what I am listening to and where  .. of course there are ways to protect but most users wont employ those tools .. http essentially drives centralization - as happened with the internet overall ... rss is kinda a sliver of goodness residing with in the pool of darkness  :-)  who is better than you to know how strong Apple and Spotify are despite all the good intent  (of rss  community)  ...  &#xA;&#xA;nostr (and bitcoin) is built on gossip protocol .. it obviates the need of central servers .. in that , relays are NOT servers . Server serves me based on my credentials stored with them,  on the other hand , I can simply go to a relay and pick up what is mine - kinda like the difference between a sit down restaurant ( server) and a  Chipotle ( self service) . Crude analogy but the point is in the  &#34;http world&#34;  a waiter (third party)  needs to know what I ordered and where I am sitting (location)  .. in &#34;nostr land&#34; all that  information grab by middle men is removed by design ..  In addition , what relays store is not the content .. it is simply the rss style fields ..  a specific set of fields for an event type  ... &#xA;&#xA;Thus nostr is simply a better core tech  ... that said .. a podcast wouldn&#39;t be called a podcast if it didn&#39;t support billions of existing user .. we may call it a nostr-cast  but that is a totally different product ..albeit a better one but without any user :-)  ..  just the way I would not call it an EMAIL unless it supports all the smtp and pop  based email clients ..including mut  :-)  &#xA;&#xA;So the path is to build  a better solution on #nostr and make sure it is backward compatible  ... not only for podcast , but for email too  .. and many more great tools crippled by http  ,,and eventually the entire internet  .. &#xA;&#xA;Disclaimer : My technology  interpretations may be wrong for lack of research on my part ! This thread has ton of great devs to correct me !</html></oembed>
