Castro Update Confirms Sale

Castro has its third owner in as many years it seems and I heard this first in podnews but have it confirmed in writing now.

Castro has been my favourite app for many years from the supertop days and a few dodgy moments when it seemed abandoned.

Giving this I built my own app Opiuml using the queue and inbox idea - my app also includes a YouTube player too.

Unfortunately I have 10 months of my Castro subscription to run but have already set it to cancel/expire.

I wanted to update everyone on the next stage of Castro: I’ve decided to sell the app to Maple Media. Maple Media is a mobile media and technology company that owns and runs category-leading entertainment, productivity and podcasting apps, including Player FM.

The Maple Media team is committed to the future of Castro and I’m looking forward to seeing where they take the app next. If you have further inquiries, feature requests or other feedback you can continue to direct them to support@castro.fm.
