Re: Tuesday, May 3, 2005
I don't have a problem with Adam getting back into radio. That Ron Bloom has the record company/media language down, I expected to see a marketing slime to follow him wherever he goes.
What pissed me off was Bloom talk of his podcast directory in his industry. He was saying that things are moving too slow, for God's sake podcasting is nine months old. I thought that the directory was to be free, to be used by all, as a community effort. Now he is calling it his and planning on buying off the editors of the directory. It smells like what Gracenote did with CDDB.
I don't want the directory effort getting sucked into any business failure or success and becoming a part of an old media company with a charge on it like Gracenote has done with CDDB. I hope that they make clear what is the licence of the podcast directory is, soon.
