Podcast NYC

Just checked out the Podcast Safe area of Podcast NYC on the recommendation of the For Immediate Release podcast. What a great idea. What a super opportunity for musicians to get their music out to a larger audience.

I believe this is one of the better uses of RSS really - for musician to create a direct relationship with their end audience. I keep an very keen eye on the music industry as I think this is an industry that is still yet to make the most of the internet.

We've seen the advent of digital delivery starting to replace physical media but that is only part of the equation. We are still yet to see artists start to create direct relationships with their audience in the kind of numbers required for them to do without the record labels.

I need to blog more about this, but I really like what this effort represent in terms of empowering artist to go direct to their end audience without the encumbrances of players in the middle.
