How Podcasting and Satellite Changed Radio

Posted by Zonk on from the your-own-personal-stream dept.

prostoalex writes "Business Week magazine discusses how podcasting changes the radio industry: "Consider the basics: With no licenses, no frequencies, and no towers, ordinary people are busy creating audio programming for thousands of others. They're bypassing an entire industry." The article notes about some advertising deals that podcasters managed to procure, but it also notes that another industry, satellite radio, represented by Sirius and XM Satellite radio, is already changing the radio landscape."

    Dear Professor Linux:

    I am a student in a preparatory school in Nancy. I have always posted as an anonymous coward so as to avoid being spotted and put on "the list." You know which list I mean. However, I fell asleep yseterday afternoon while watching ST:TNG reruns and I think I may have missed The Signal. Please, did you hear it? Or should I continue to wait?
