That really grinds my gears
I remember a few years ago going on an international flight. I had Spotify premium and I spent a few hours sorting and downloading playlists and podcasts that I wanted to listen to on an eight hour flight. Tested, retested and everything worked fine.
Got on the plane, fifteen minutes in turn on my device to play some music .... NOTHING WORKED ... all the downloaded files I had set for offline were unusable. I couldn't believe it.
My next flights were like yours .... just downloada bunch of stuff and play them freely without headaches.
I'm not even a FOSS nut and I use antennapod. It's just a good clean app.
Now I will say that Tidal worked flawlessly so I at least had some music.
I switched to iPhone for work and I listening to podcasts is the worst. Before bedtime I usually download a podcast and put my phone into flightmode. On the normal app + on Castbox everything is acting up. The podcast stops and will not continue. No matter what. Going back 15s? Well how about f* you, I ain't playing anything.
