I host over 30 music / podcast feeds on my digitalocean server (very inexpensive) as well as ipfs.

If you visit https://ipfspodcasting.net/Feed all but 11 "podcasts" in the top half are hosted by me and are served through IPFS.

All you really need is a place to host your RSS file and songs that is publicly available. Then submit it to podcastindex,org

ipfspodcasting.net provides a redirect that fetches the mp3 from an ipfs node and serves it through a public gateway automatically.

Here is an example of how the redirect works.

https://ipfspodcasting.net/e/cdn.kolomona.com/podcasts/lightning-thrashes/bands/prismind/disciples-by-Design/04-prismind-diamond_eye.mp3

If you put ipfs podcasting into your splits then it incentivises ipfs nodes to pin your mp3 file as they get a portion of the split.

As far as needing a domain; I don't know of any podcast players that support the ipfs protocol natively so the ipfspodcasting redirect to to gateway is the only way that I know of to get ipfs to work.

I'm not sure if this post answers your questions or was helpful. Hopefully it was 🙂
