Protect DVD-Video = EVIL

Copy Never Flag has TiVo Series Three signing the blues
A TiVo Series Three Receiver was on my shopping list for this Christmas season. I have been watching the reviews of the unit and the new C|Net review of the Series III that I saw today makes me wonder if I should take the unit off my wish list.
Netscape could make it easier for Video Podcasters
I love what Jason and his team have done over at Netscape you can submit Video to their site, not only do they convert it and make a iPod ready version for those that only want to produce a single version but they also provide you a hyper-link to the original file you upload.
What does the YouTube – Google Marriage mean
If it is not self evident already with all of the deals being signed but it is pretty apparent that YouTube is about to become a mecca for commercial content.

Leo Laporte suggestion to change Podcast to Netcast is ridiculous
I have only meet Leo in passing a couple of times but did not get a chance to talk to him at Podcast Expo about his Netcast idea. He was a Keynote Speaker at the Podcast and Portable Media Expo where he put forth the conceptual idea of promoting the word Netcast versus Podcast. My conclusion was that it was way too late in the game to re-name the media. 100% of the listeners / podcasters I have run this by also agree it is too late.
SageTV Media Center and SageTV Placeshifter
