Podcasting

Just for grins and to make sure it's recorded in the history of alternate terms to 'podcasting' here is a link to a 9/26/2006 Slashdot article that, among other things, discusses Apple "... going after the term 'podcasting'" and quotes the venerable Robert Scoble "... -- whose own company, PodTech, may be at risk in this witch hunt -- has weighed in on the issue by suggesting that the tech community as a whole adopt other terms like "audiocast" and 'videocast' (or alternately, 'audcast' and 'vidcast') to describe this type of content..."

I looked at the link and I can't find any reference to a podcast being called an "audio magazine". I'm taking this stub and redirecting it to a more complete page about the magazine called Audio. Binksternet (talk) 00:53, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Good idea since the physical magazine is what most people would be looking for on a search of audio magazine rather than a disambiguation page. Regardless, the history of the term remains and it is still used occasionally as a generic substitute for the term "podcast". Jimkloss (talk) 06:33, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Aha! The slashdot link I looked at was no good for the specific phrase "audio magazine" but the Google search was. I can see now how a subscription to a podcast is being called an audio magazine. I'm turning this page into an official disambiguation page so people will be able to choose the meaning they wanted. 71.198.107.0 (talk) 15:52, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
