Read The History And How Podcasting Using RSS Works Here.
Traditional broadcasters were extremely quick to pick up on the pod casting format, especially those whose news or talk formats spared them the complications of music licensing.
The American syndicated radio show Web Talk
Radio became the first to adopt the format, in September 2004, followed
within weeks by Seattle news radio station KOMO and by individual
programs from KFI Los Angeles and Boston's WGBH.
The BBC began a trial in October 2004 with BBC Radio Five Live's Fighting Talk.
These trials were extended in January 2005 to BBC Radio 4's In Our Time. January 2005 also saw CBC begin a trial with its technology show /Nerd. United States National Public Radio affiliates WNYC and KCRW adopted the format for many of their productions.
In April 2005 the BBC announced it was extending the trial to twenty more programmes, including music radio and in the same month Australia's ABC launched a pod casting trial across several of its national stations.
In May, 2005, the trend began to go the other way, with amateur pod casts becoming a source of content for broadcast radio programs by Adam Curry, Christopher Lydon and others.
Coping with growth
While podcasting's innovators took advantage of the sound-file synchronization feature of Apple Computer's iPod and iTunes software -- and included "pod" in the name -- the technology was always compatible with other players and programs.
Apple was not actively involved until mid-2005, when it joined the market on three fronts: as a source of "podcatcher" software, as publisher of a pod cast directory, and as provider of tutorials on how to create pod casts with Apple products GarageBand and Quicktime Pro.
The pod casting selection views of iTunes 4.9
When it added a pod cast-subscription feature to its June 28, 2005, release of iTunes 4.9, Apple also launched a directory of pod casts at the iTunes Music Store, starting with 3,000 entries.
Apple's software enabled AAC encoded pod casts to use chapters, bookmarks, external links, and synchronized images displayed on iPod screens or in the iTunes artwork viewer.
Two days after release of the program, Apple reported one million pod cast subscriptions.
iTunes Pod cast directory lists top 100 pod casts based on the number of new subscriptions in a given 24-hour period, which explains the wild fluctuations in top-20 panel rankings, initially suspected to be an active count of total number of pod cast subscribers.
Some pod casters found that exposure to iTunes' huge number of downloader’s threatened to make great demands on their bandwidth and related expenses.
Possible solutions were proposed, including the addition of a content delivery system, such as Akamai; a peer-to-peer solution, BitTorrent; or use of free hosting services, such as those offered by Ourmedia, BlipMedia and the Internet Archive.
There's no charge to download the pod casts. Pod casting is a term coined to describe making audio files available for download through RSS feeds.
