Abstract
Overview
Podcast offers on the net have particularly improved over the last few months.
Early 2007, the number of podcasts on the World Wide Web was estimated at over
100,000, when only two years ago, there were less than 10,000. Based on
technologies, tools and equipment designed by computer, Internet and CE
experts, podcasting has whet the appetite of the majority of media veteran
players and appears to have won the popularity vote among web users.
Nonetheless, new technology is spouting and coming up against fierce
competition from other media players (downloading applications, mobile TV and
radio) who pursue similar objectives.
This report aims to gain a better grasp of what this new technology actually
involves, the (current and potential) market that it represents as well as the
strategic developments that this market could pose for media and telecom
players.
