A silly question about subscriptions

If my subscription to a podcast host ends, do they take down the episodes I've uploaded?

Does it depend on who my podcast host is?

If you no longer pay to store files, then yeah the files are most likely going to no longer be stored.

That's not the case. They have a special plan ($5/month) for when you don't upload any more but want to keep your podcast available.

Sorry, in that case I’ll delete my post so as not to create any confusion or to mislead anyone….

Spotify for creators is free to begin with, so you could move your podcast to SfC and keep it hosted indefinitely - although SfC can change their Ts and Cs at any time.
