UK DJ duo launches commercial podcasting company
A duo of UK radio DJs have launched a commercial podcasting outfit online, offering radio programming for download to digital music players such as an iPod.Former BBC Radio 1 DJ Wes Butters and former Virgin Radio DJ Daryl Denham have set up Podshows, a €73,000 (£50,000) venture that offers half-hour podcasts of radio shows for download for €0.72 (49p) and hour-long shows for €1.45 (99p).
Traditional radio must be listened to at the time of broadcast, and digital radio can be streamed at any time, but one can only listen via a computer, a podcast is an audio file downloadable from the internet and playable on a portable digital music player such as an iPod at any time.
The company offers a Top 40 singles chart show, classical and jazz programming and updates from the Michael Jackson child abuse trial in California.
At launch the shows are only available via streaming, as the company has yet to finalise music licensing with the major record labels
