Edit: Microsoft just confirmed that their Astoria projectr is dead: http://www.androidpolice.com/2016/02/25/microsoft-confirms-android-to-windows-app-tool-project-astoria-is-dead/
Unless they come back with an alternate solution there shouldn’t be a Windows port any time soon.
Sorry about that

Xavier, I don't know what the future of Project Astoria is, but keep watching that space. I appreciate the challenge for a one-man shop to support multiple platforms. The growth of Win10 has been pretty incredible - over 100 million devices in 4 months or so. Gartner is predicting Android and Windows to tie in total installed base in 2016. From a business perspective, it might make sense to consider the Android version of Podcast Addict feature complete for now, i.e. still keep fixing high impact bugs and keep up with compatibility for the latest version of Android, but suspend work on additional features. And focus 90% of your time on developing a native Universal App that works on Desktop and Xbox. There is nothing on Windows that is even close to Podcast Addict - you have a window of opportunity now to corner the market and ride the adoption wave.
