Column: how many podcasts are downloaded and never listened to?

RAJAR's MIDAS research reveals this - and how popular music services are getting during the workday.

This is a recording for the test transmissions of inRadio, and shared as an example of a raw Røde Podcaster microphone. Just so you know: I'm in a square, untreated room with a shiny wooden floor. I've two big windows, which are both half open. Outside are cicadas. The fan of my MacBook Pro is running full-tilt. It's 36.1 degrees Celsius. I have no pop-shield; this audio was recorded as a WAV and (after slight editing) uploaded as WAV to Audioboom. It's had no noise-reduction nor audio processing on it, and is just as it left the microphone.

I'd also point out that this is really supposed to be a print column, and it's quite difficult writing for both print and voice.
