I don't fall out with the desire of an official accessory program, but to make existing accessories obsolete from Nov 12th is a really disappointingly poor decision.
It needlessly creates e-waste of these products, and likely disproportionately impacts those less well off who's only option would be to pick cheaper, unlicensed accessories.
Great question. For me, to be a great company it must have a combo of traits: a mission I'm bought into, a team that compliment each other, and great work-life balance.
My current setup is to host the audiobooks in a Plex library and use a third party app like Prologue [1] on iOS or Chronicle [2] on Android which both work really well for offline listening and progress tracking.
SpaceTime is an amazing channel, if you enjoy the in depth videos then I'd also highly recommend ScienceClic (no K at the end) and History of the Universe, both channels similarly go in deep on a lot of physics, and have really great visuals.
