The topic of video podcasts vs. audio podcasts doesn’t seem to go away. my view - spoken word for greytime is perfect. at your desktop however, itis impossible to concentrate on 100%. by implication, adding video (whether these be talking heads, slides, etc) probably makes sense.

My post points out that should one seek to make money from creating independent content (and please pause to consider what I’m saying- not, should you seek to brand your business with a podcast; not, should you seek to produce audio because you like it and it’s easier for people to consume)… the MONEY seems to be going towards video production right now.

I’m not saying this because I want audio podcasters to stop. I listen to your show when people send me the best ones. I listen to a bunch of audio in a given week.

I’m following the current trends in SPENDING on new media (such as the term is) production right now.

We agree on the state of lots of video shows. They’re just as easy to listen to, and the visuals don’t do much for them.

And for those folks who want to stay in audio, I pointed out that the goal is to get TIGHT with your stuff, get more professional.

Seems to me one would do that well if they read your book. Right?

So I don’t think we’re in disagreement, if you see my points more clearly with this additional info. I’m a fan of your work, by the way. : )

I also concur that we don’t need to see any more talking heads — unless it’s for entertainment, e.g. Ze Frank.
