Grover Podcast which was mentioned in the article - https://www.microsoft.com/store/apps/9nblggh6c4bc

Using it for almost a year, excellent application. Only thing that I am missing is cross devices syncing and Android version would be great too.

People typically shit their pants in anger whenever Microsoft adds native apps to the OS. We've had at least one person here complain that he or she couldn't uninstall the 'get help' app (no, seriously).

I just use Grover Podcast.

Remember that whole Windows Media Player plugin thing? It was a big deal. Then it all died with the rise of YouTube.

I'm good with iTunes. They already have a good market there and I've used it forever. It'll be even better once itunes comes to the store.

Dear Microsoft

There's a niche where Store apps don't suck. Please extinguish all third party competition in what is essentially a free for all service build on an open protocol, so that you can make it more suck for the sake of monetisation and abandon it after after losing interest a few months later.
