YouTube to add support for RSS uploads for podcasters by year-end

YouTube product lead Steve McLendon has confirmed that the platform will add support for RSS (Really Simple Syndication) uploads for podcasters by the end of the year, among other updates.

The new feature has been in beta testing as a strategic, invite-only pilot since earlier this year, reports TechCrunch.

An RSS feed is an online file that contains details about every piece of content a site has published — simply a file that contains all your podcast’s information.
