Despite all this potential power, podcasting remains in an infancy stage right now.

But, Internet has always proven in past that a powerful but simple technology will always find a way to make itself felt quickly.

All it needs to explode is a few people to lead way and show exactly how to use technology to entertain and educate subscribers.

I also think two worlds will evolve for podcasting program publishers, just like cable vs. network television.

Some content will remain free (network TV), while some subscribers will gladly pay for more specific "niche" or pay-per-view content (cable TV).

As quality of programming increases along with more widespread acceptance of tools necessary to consume content (MP3 players and portable video players), podcasting will grow to stand beside other mainstream media.

It won't happen overnight, and it won't penetrate every market, but as members of "global village" seek to find and feel a connection with like-minded individuals, regardless of their physical location, podcasting provides a cheap, powerful, and innovative solution for that basic human need.
