My remote recording workflow started with Skype in 2008, then with Squadcast, now with Riverside for the last few years. My initial reactions to the news about Libsyn Connect are these:
Presumably, Libsyn is also using WebRTC in a browser tab as the technology behind it. If not, I’d be curious as to how they are doing it.
Regardless, as the experiences of Squadcast/Riverside/etc. show, creating a reliable, stable system is a non-trivial task. How is Libsyn doing this? Is it all an internal development project? Did they buy another company with the technology? Is it a white-label product?
The feature set is important. I don’t use anywhere near all the features of Riverside, but I’m curious how far Libsyn has gone in that direction.
I use Libsyn as the media host for one show, and Blubrry for another. Is Libsyn Connect embedded in the Libsyn system in a way that it cannot be used for other, non-Libsyn projects?
These are just a few of my initial thoughts. I can understand a company wanting to be a one-stop shop for podcasting, but for me, that’s actually a strike against it because it tends to lock you into the ecosystem. (a la Apple) The component approach is more attractive to me, but I appreciate that others like an all-in-one.

Good ideas and good questions. I don’t know any of those answers either. Thanks Max!
