KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Podcasting - Name

"Podcasting" is a portmanteau word coined in 2004 (see "History" below), that combined two words: "iPod" and "broadcasting." Neither podcasting nor listening to podcasts requires an iPod or other portable player, and no over-the-air broadcasting is required. The name association came about simply because Apple Computer's iPod was the best-selling portable digital audio player when podcasting began a ...

KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Podcasting - Podcasting versus broadcasting and streaming

Subscribing to podcasts allows a user to collect programs from a variety of sources for listening or viewing offline at whatever time and place is convenient to the user. In contrast, traditional broadcasting provides only one source at a time, and the time is broadcaster-specified. While podcasts are gaining ground on personal sites and blogs, they're not yet widespread. One easy way to find podcasts is to use the Podcast Directory in iTunes; these automatically-updated p ...

KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Podcasting - Podcasting and Music Royalties

From the beginning, the use of licensed music in podcasts has been a delicate legal issue. Podcasting - Regular radio-based podcasts. Regular radio broadcasters' podcasts (and MP3 file downloads without subscription feeds) have run into complications regarding royalties for incidental music on "talk" broadcasts, even when identical programs are "streamed."

KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Santa Monica California - Weather

Santa Monica enjoys an average of 325 days of sunshine a year. Because of its location, nestled on a vast open bay (Santa Monica Bay), morning fog and haze is a common phenomenon in May, June and early July (caused by ocean temperature variations and currents).

KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Podcasting - Name

"Podcasting" is a portmanteau, first coined by Adam Curry, that combined two words: "iPod" and "broadcasting." As of 2005, the name had become established as "podcasting," memorable because of its similarity to "broadcasting" and because of the iPod audio player's popularity. The use of the "pod" name in 2004 probably played a part[1] in Apple's development of podcasting products and services in 2005, further cross-promoting the device and the activity.

KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Podcasting by traditional broadcasters - Canada

CBC Radio began experimenting with four podcasts (CBC Podcasts). In the summer of 2005, when the CBC locked out more than 5000 of its regular on-air and technical staff, they responded by creating their own unofficial podcast of original programming, CBC Unplugged, which also appeared on some campus and community radio stations. That podcast contrasted (and competed) with on-air CBC programming broadcast by a skeleton crew of managers—which, unlike the staff podcast, consisted mostly of repeats and rebroadcasts from the BBC and other networks, with a minimum of new material. Corus Entertainment radio statio ...

KCRW: Encyclopedia II - Public broadcasting - Defining public broadcasting

There is no standard definition of what public broadcasting is exactly, although a number of official bodies have attempted to pick out the key characteristics. Public service broadcasters generally transmit programming that aims to improve society by informing viewers.
