First things First, if you have a Podcast that is listed on Podshow then you going to need to hope that people that visit that site dig around pretty deep to find a link to your home page, as it is buried beneath a couple layers of web pages. Currently there is no home page link on your show listing main landing pages.
Also forget about having people subscribe to your RSS feed, because Podshow has Hijacked every listed podcasters RSS Feed stripped out data and inserted there own info. Feel Free to visit this page and look at my RSS feed that has been Hijacked under the Podshow Domain!.
I am sitting here beyond pissed, not because they have my site automatically listed on their site that is fine because they are a directory, but in the way they have done it, this makes people assume that my podcast is part of Podshow, and diminishes my brand. They have made it near impossible to get to my home page from their site unless your really digg it’s 100% unacceptable.
I can accept almost anything, but the RSS feed Hijacking has me angry. Podshow also needs to put a disclaimer by every show that is not under contract with their network indicating such. Ohh if you don’t have Javascript enabled don’t bother visiting there site.
Update: I am now noticing that they have pulled out all the copyright information from my feed and everyone elses. They are doing this with all of our properties this is asking for big trouble. Time to get on the phone…
Update: A lot of people are starting to weigh in on this Croncast, Michael Geoghegan, Dave Winer, Paul Colligan
Update: Podshow has corrected the issue and now links go back to the owners feeds.
