@fallenhitokiri There are two main drivers for me:

* The iOS Podcasts app is built poorly when it comes to privacy:

* When I share podcasts, I do not want to assume that a person has access to a specific platform. The web page shared through Overcast share feature will always play in any browser.

A final reason is probably just preference because I'm so used to it. :)
