Podcasting and Bandwidth Usage...

Russell Beattie Notebook - 25GB

I know I'm going to learn from experience. The next time I decide to put out a potentially popular media file like that, it'll definitely be on BitTorrent first.

Russell Beattie discusses a possible downfall of becoming a popular Podcaster... bandwidth usage/charges. There has been lots of talk about Podcasting, positioning audio for easy incorporation into devices such as an iPod. While I think the opportunities for time shifting are great and would love to see more existing audio content available via this method of distribution, I'm not that excited about the do it your self variety. It sounds to me a bit like Wayne and Garth without the basement set...
