RE: Podcasts

I think that you also have an ability to do more from an entertainment
perspective.  It's limited but with some of the tools out there you do
have some very nice editing functions.

Well, you can't print out a podcast.  You can't (easily) cut and paste a
quotation from a podcast into a document you're creating.  If saved to
disk they take up many more times as much disk space as a transcript
would.  You cannot listen to it without having a power source (AC or
battery) and a listening device.  Deaf people are left out unless
there's some TTD equivalent.

IMO that's how podcasts are, umm, 'better'.

There was a discussion about podcasts for the i5 community. Not to talk
down a technology, but what's the difference between a podcast and an
article (besides the obvious sensory difference)? Is there some
technology associated with podcasts that makes it inherently better than
reading, or is it just a different way?
