What solution is that which he didn't mention? He mentioned AAC, custom formats, just do it and ignore the share link issues (LOVE the share links).

I'm referring to the article. I presume that if Apple ends up supporting MLLT ID3 tags natively based on Marco's request, he'll feel free to switch his podcast to VBR without guilt. (Even though this will cause problems for all his non-iOS11 listeners.)
