Podcasting Growth

Look at it grow! And this is just podcasts on Feedburner. There are many more sites that are growing just as fast.

Actual podcast feeds from 2006 (above).

Estimated growth from 2005 (http://radiomagonline.com/currents/weekly/radio_currents_111405/)

Today there are so many it is impossible to count. Apple merely says on their site that "The iTunes Store offers more than 100,000 audio and video podcasts from independent creators and big names..." (http://www.apple.com/itunes/whatson/podcasts/)
