CHUM-FM Launches PODCAST
Okay, I'm am not at all a fan of Chum-Fm (Other then the fact that ex-CFNY DJ Maie Pauts seems to work there now). However, I am pleased to see that they are launching a podcast. To really impress me, they would use Bittorrent to speed up the distribution, but it is good to see mainstream media types to offer cutting edge concepts like podcasts.

What I would really like to see is CBC RADIO 3 go the same way. I truely believe that if you could get it on demand, that it would greatly increase it's listenership.

Here is the link to the pulse24 article:

Pulse24 - Toronto's News: "as of May 2, those of you with an MP3 player will be able to listen to more than just your favourite catalogue of tunes on your way to the office. CHUM FM is offering fans a downloadable version of the Roger, Rick and Marilyn morning show"

Ahhh!
Good old CFNY. Brings back good memories form High School and bad memories form the present lack of really good music on TO’s radios for the most part.
