Should I use podomatic.com for my podcasts?

Re: Should I use podomatic.com for my podcasts?

The answer depends on what you are looking for. If you want something that is free and easy and podcasting is a hobby for you, sure. If you are a professional, podomatic has two major faults:

1) You lose control of your content

Once you upload your content you no longer control it. I doubt you even own it. You certainly have no rights to limit its distribution.

2) You are given a tiny amount of storage.

Media files are by definition large files. 500Mb is a tiny amount (less than 5 minutes of good quality web video or about 500 minutes of good quality audio). Even when you bump up to the “Pro” version you only get 2Gb.
