Apple Podcasts and Spotify introduce paid subscriptions

Spotify's program is managed by Anchor, which makes it a bit hard if you're using another platform to release your content. Apple's program is managed at podcastsconnect.apple.com, the same interface in which you obtain analytics for your show, and you'll probably have to upload paid episodes through their interface.
