From the iPodder-dev list a script that sets bookmarks in mp3's, assuming you're using iTunes and a Mac.

Lots of questions in email today about licensing of podcasts using mp3 technology. Up to 100 grand you're in the clear. If you're making more than that, contact me! :)

mp3licensing.com - Q & A - End Users: "A license is needed for commercial (i.e., revenue-generating) use of mp3/mp3PRO in broadcast systems (terrestrial, satellite, cable and/or other distribution channels), streaming applications (via Internet, intranets and/or other networks), other content distribution systems (pay-audio or audio-on-demand applications and the like) or for use of mp3/mp3PRO on physical media (compact discs, digital versatile discs, semiconductor chips, hard drives, memory cards and the like).

However, no license is needed for private, non-commercial activities (e.g., home-entertainment, receiving broadcasts and creating a personal music library), not generating revenue or other consideration of any kind or for entities with an annual gross revenue less than US$ 100 000.00."

On the other hand, the AAC format license says: "There are no royalties due on the distribution of audio encoded in the AAC format."

Dave posted an RFC for iPodder. His timing is perfect, ipodder.net 0.1 for windows has just been released, installs to put a system tray icon in place and offers feed and scheduling maintenance.

Rogueamoeba, who make audio hijack pro and nicecast are considering developing an all-in-one podcasting solution. From my own experience I can say they definitely have all the bits in place. Routing audio through applications is still a bit of a hack, but obviously possible.

While enjoying roomservice we listened to the 'Future of online content' panel at gnomedex. About 20 minutes of iPod discussion and Steve Gillmor ain't stoppin' :) Go Steve!

I think I pointed to this before, but it's just so inspiring to imagine that this is how your podcast is being listened to while you perform your soliloquy. (nsfw)

NBC - Digital Edge: "Podcasting -- like blogging -- seems to combine the best of the Internet with the best of traditional media. It's a way for someone to create and distribute a show to 40 people. And it also would allow a media company to distribute audio content to millions."

Brian: "Plus there is a sheer cool factor that one minute you're having lunch in a maritime Canadian province, or your chatting with a friend in Seattle from your home in Belgium over the net, then a day later, some guy is listening to your voice and idea on his iPod, in a train tunnel a country or continent away. When viewed in this light, audioblogging is actually pretty cool."

Dan Gillmor: "The word for this is "podcasting," delivering audio to MP3 players like the iPod. I'm working on a column about the genre.

This is going to be a big deal, sooner than you think."

Hmm, maybe there's a spot for a sony device in my life after all. Not enough inputs, but we're getting there!

Ed: "Remember the days you were staying up late to be able to press the record button to record your favorite radio show?"

Doc Searls has been following the iPodder explosion and points to a piece in Forbes about the history of the NAB and how they are succesfully regulating satellite radio out of business. It's going to get interesting when iPods are outlawed and assault rifles are legal.
