Blogosphereradio looks like it could be a good resource for iPodder, unfortunately no enclosures in their ample supply of rss feeds.

Almaren: “Au fait, iPodder permet d’exploiter les “inclosures” via iTunes, donc aussi bien sur le iPod que sur votre Mac ou votre PC.”

digitalmerging: “This type of development continues to bring the artist and the audience one step closer together. Musicians have been putting their music online for a few years now but the ability to have it automated through the blogging process makes it that much easier for their music to be accessed. Maybe in the future, one of these programs will include a feature that suggests new music to try out similar to what Tivo does for television.”

Network-Centric Advocacy: “As the percentage of campaign workers with mp3 playing equipment starts to rise (millions) there is a huge potential to load the devises with high value listening materials beyond Monkeys songs stolen from Mike Nesbitt..”

Jon Stahl:: “The good news is that doing broadcast quality audio doesn’t require much gear anymore.”

In a world of the past, the success of the shows I'm podcasting would have shut down the program completely. I'm pushing out an almost constant 10 Mb/s with spikes up to 15 Mb/s at the top of the hour when newsreaders and iPodders kick in.

Not many a podcaster will be able to afford that kind of bandwidth usage without financing of some sort.

Luckily the boys and girls on the ipodder-dev list anticipated this and have integrated bittorrent into several versions of the application.

From what I've been hearing the p2p podcast network is already bootstrapped on EGC and others with success!

Once we have a single version of iPodder (or one per platform) I'll do my bootstraps, posting multiple feeds at forst and eventually hope to drop the direct download. I'm going to install some log tracking software today so I can measure the bootstrapping process.
