I assume that Music will still support podcasts?

I'm miffed that videos were moved to an entirely different app; I'm subscribed to the TED talks video podcasts, but have to launch an entirely different application to listen to them (and yup, I listen to 99% of them as I'm walking around instead of watching them.)



It won't. Podcasts are removed from Music in iOS 6.


Are you kidding me? Currently my car radio can control the music app and let me listen to podcasts. Why would they take that functionality away?


Your car radio can control any app that supports the remote control API, which podcasts does.


Interesting -- what other apps use the remote control API? I have never been able to control anything other than "Music" with either of my cars.

Aside from using the phone to make calls, of course.


Well, that's kind of silly. Not a huge deal, but I listen to my podcasts through a playlist that gathers all the podcasts I subscribe to, so it mixes it up a bit. Sounds like it won't happen anymore…


Oh, goddamnit.
