Sad to see the end of a 13 year run.

What? I really enjoyed this but haven't kept up regularly, why so?

It was in the red, didn't bring in enough as revenue.

Did they explain why they ended it? I'm currently listening to it so maybe the reason is coming up. I'm a loyal listener and so a bit devastated and shocked that it wasn't announced in advance.

It's one of the most engaging shows I listen to so I'd be surprised if it was because of a shrinking audience.

It was a good show for android users like me and the lack of good alternatives indicates there isn't a market for this type of show. We're probably still in the early stages of losing the things we're used to having because they're no longer economically viable.

There was a time when there were a bunch of Android podcasts. But I think as Google has made Android more "boring" the interest for these has faded.

Is this the TWiT studios Android show?

Fudge! TWiT has been killing more good shows than they've been bringing on. I'll have to listen to the show, but I wonder why they'd end a show about one of the most popular operating systems/platforms on the market.

I've been a club twit member for over a year now.
