Podcast Satellite Radio

Adam Curry, former MTV VJ and podcasting guru, announced on his 2 May Daily Source Code. that he would soon be hosting a podcasting show on Sirius Satellite Radio. Curry said the show would include podcasting content -- which probably means both "promos" and actual podcast "shows." A New York Times story from 2 May says it will be a 4-hour daily show and will start 13 May. Curry's show about podcasting will be on one of Sirius's channels with commercials. Sirius joins Infinity Broadcasting as the second media company to announce a the incorporation of the podcasting format into its programming. Mr. Curry seems to be in a position to call the shots when it comes to podcasting. I think the NYTimes called him the "podfather"... Ugh!

I'm not sure whether these forays amount to evidence of the decline of radio, or the "corruption" of the emerging podcasting movement. Podcasting might just gobble up radio.
