Mainstream Media Is Tuning In to 'Podcasting'
Mainstream Media Is Tuning In to 'Podcasting': "Now, it's 'Queer Eye Hip Tips' and 'ABC News' that dominate as the most popular podcasts on iTunes, making the one-person, in-house shows harder to spot in a sea of media logos.

Indie podcasters say Apple's decision has brought them new listeners, but they complain that the iTunes Web site heavily promotes big-name podcasts while leaving out their homegrown shows."
