Here's PVR Wire's first shot at a podcast. It's really a 29-minute telephone interview, but I guess anything that's converted to mp3 format nowadays is called a podcast.
I interview Ron Petralia, vice president of sales at Hauppauge Digital Inc., a manufacturer of computer products that have PVR functions.
In this podcast, Petralia and I talk about:
- Hauppauge's PVR products.
- Windows XP Media Center PC sales.
- Do it yourself efforts to create PVRs. "I wouldn't call it mainstream yet," he told me. "But it is a growth area that's been extremely popular for us."
- The company's decision not to sell its HDTV card yet.
- An upcoming Mac version of a PVR product.
Again, you can download the podcast here.
1. Umm, it certainly is an mp3. But to me, what differentiates a podcast is using RSS (or similar channels, or search categories on iTMS) to allow the discovery and mass downloading of a bunch of audio content. Now, if you had a separate RSS feed just for PVRWIre Podcasts, I'd call *that* a podcast. ;-)
