The most comprehensive year-in-review of Podcasting 2.0 including stats, charts and awards.
“Apple is taking Podcasting mainstream by building it right into iTunes,”
said Steve Jobs in 2005.
“Podcasting is the next generation of radio, and users can now subscribe to over 3,000 free Podcasts and have each new episode automatically delivered over the Internet to their computer and iPod.”
These humble beginnings seem like forever ago and podcasting has come a long way since.
Thanks to the great work happening in the Podcasting 2.0 community - we have access to a censorship-resistant library of over 4 million shows via The Podcast Index. We also have powerful new features being added to the RSS feed that work in a consistent way across the ecosystem. This is changing the way we think about podcasting as a medium and how we engage with podcast content, support creators and interact with other fans.
