Definitions: Streaming Media
• Streaming vs. Download– Streaming Media, for our purposes, will mean
“Internet audio and video” or even, “audiovisual media carried over IP networks”. If it didn’t, this presentation would not belong at this conference.
– Download is of course, content that is pulled down from a web server and saved to the hard drive
– Streaming, generally still refers to content served from a media server to a media player, with VCR controls, etc. But the term is so sloppily used that we’re not going to quibble.
May 22, 2006

Definitions: Video Blogging & Podcasting
• Fundamentally, simply the automated downloading of primarily ad-supported audio MP3s or video files for later consumption
• An organic extension of blogging

Blogging & RSS
• RSS = “real simple syndication” “rich site summary” and various other things
• Very rapid adoption• Introduced a significant new Internet standard (RSS)• (conceptually)
– 1990s - HTTP– 2000s - RSS
• RSS strikes the right balance of extensibility vs. standardization like HTTP did
• RSS = syndicated web• RSS 1.0, 2.0, and Atom are different ways to do the same
thing (syndicate & update content)
May 22, 2006
14
Feeds enable Automated Downloading
May 22, 2006
15
RSS feeds Aggregators, Search Engines and News sites
May 22, 2006
16
Feed Flags
• Provide links to RSS/Atom as well as direct links to aggregators which automatically hand them the RSS feed information.
• Adding feed flags makes it easier for users to subscribe to your content
May 22, 2006
17
Podcasts: A New Format
• Podcasts are a personal format– “Keep it real”; keep it informal; bald faced
advertising will not fly in the format• Why are you podcasting?
– Reach new audience?– Create a plaform?– Promote products?
• Viewers & listenters– Want production value– Don’t want market-ese
May 22, 2006
18
Major Differences: Streaming vs. Podcasting/Videoblogging
• Audio/Video production– Since it’s often a talk-radio format, you have the talk radio
learning curve– Lengths are are short, on-the-go for video
• Webpages vs. Template-driven blogs– CSS, XML, RSS, Blog templates
• Encoding for new targets: – not Win/Mac/Linux but PDA/Phone/iPod
• RSS production– RSS not quite standard; iTunes music store vs. aggregators
vs. podcatchers vs. yahoo RSS
May 22, 2006
19
Length
• Podcasts– Audio can be anywhere from 3-5 minutes
to 45 minutes or longer– Video needs to be fairly short form; 3-5
minutes works, 15 minutes works; 30 minutes is on the long side

“Safe” Online Distribution Models(Cooking without DRM)
• Distribute low quality versions, with moderate protection but no encryption (such as streaming without allowing save to disk).
• Distribute high quality versions, with lock box encryption. Allow redistribution because the content has to be unlocked on every machine or device.
• Distribute only teaser, filler, or “exclusive” content that is not provided on other media channels. Disincentives people from copying it by freely distributing it. Use it to promote the sale or consumption of other similar or related media.
• Distribute a small subset of the high quality media unlocked; use it to advertise a greater body of media that is locked with stronger encryption.

According to a study of more than 1,200 Internet users released by the Online Publishers Association, 24 percent said they watched online video at least once a week, while 46 percent said they watched at least once a month.”
• “What's more, two-thirds of those who regularly viewed online video said they also watched online video ads, and 44 percent of those users said they have taken action on what they've seen, i.e. they went to an advertiser's Web site and, in some cases, even made a purchase.”

43
Personal Podcasting
• Personal Blogs– Great outlet for creative people to showcase their
work in a linear timeline with fresh material– Keep family and friends updated without having to
tell the same story over and over again.
May 22, 2006
44
Media Podcasts
• Media– Provide a blog for on-air talent to go deeper into subject
matter– A place for talent to editorialize– Linear archive of news shows for people who might want to
see a previous broadcast– Outtakes and raw feeds to give an "insider" look to viewers
• Small Media / DIY News Shows– With high production values and good writing, small news
organizations can develop a large and dedicated following– Low overhead and linear format works in a familiar news
pattern (newspapers) freshness and content drive traffic but the format allows for archival footage.

45
Corporate Podcasting

Podcast Monetization
May 22, 2006
47
Hosting
• Like any large media, podcasting and videoblogging create huge hosting bills– Fortunately, downloaded content is tolerant of
delays that streaming media would never tolerate
• Sizes– MP3s are 1 meg a minute– Video, around 10 megs a minute– 1,000 30-minute podcasts =
1,000 3-minute videoblogs = 30,000 megs = 30 Gigs of transfer
May 22, 2006
48
• Most sites average .50/gig• Liberated syndication (libsyn.com)
– Storage fee instead of per gig
• Podbus.com (.40/gig)• http://www.prodigem.com/ - free bittorrent hosting
– RSS distrubition of attachemnets
• http://blip.tv/ provides a complete hosting and blog portal solution
• Cogent - Flat-fee bandwidth perfectly suitable for podcasts, $3000 for a 100MB connection

Podcast/Videoblog Income
• Generally, subscription revenues have been unsuccessful
• Interstitial, sponsored ads work– Podcast/Blog culture sensitive to overhyping– Commercials often integrated into verbal narrative
• Paypal “Tip Jar” works for some independents• Sponsors/Advertisers successful model• Standard web ads for the associated portal:
Google AdWords, etc.
May 22, 2006

• Easy + $– Wordpress
• Flexible + $ + Multiple blogs– Movable Type + RSS extensions
• Free, Difficult, and Unnecessary– Hand-coding– Feed for all
• $ + complete control– Roll-your-own RSS (programmed)
May 22, 2006
52
Tracking
• Feedburner does some of this, tracking subscribers• Traditional site tracking tools fall at disadvantage
– RSS feeds, different kinds, don’t contain the little hidden tracker URLs used by these services
• Use the web host logs + webalyzer to track downloads of the files themselves
• Use hosting services that provide this data

Part 3:Applications & Services;
Production; Licensing; Q&A
May 22, 2006
55
Licensing/Legal Issues
• Podcasts/Videoblogs are not regulated by the FCC– This means that podcasters can speak about anything– Still a good idea to avoid slander, threatening heads of state,
inciting revolution against the government, threatening hate speech
• Podcasts/Videoblogs are regulated by the RIAA– Always avoid commercial music without written permission
• Videoblogs can run into other issues– Showing products/trademarks within video blogs will become an
issue as it is in movies
May 22, 2006
56
Key Licensing Terms• Copyright = automatically, all created works are copyrighted, meaning you
generally have get permission to reproduce it for others.• Creative Commons = nonprofit group that standardizes a number of
licensing terms so that creative works can be disseminated with their author rights clearly defined and declared
• ASCAP (American Society of Composers, Authors, and Publishers) & BMI (Broadcast Music, Inc.) = Who you need to pay (goes to the song’s composer or author) for performing or covering a song on radio
• RIAA (Recording Industry Association of America) = Who you need to pay (goes to the record labels) for playing the original of a song
• Podsafe = music that is not under ASCAP/BMI/RIAA, and that has been specifically licensed (such as Creative Commons) for free promotional or paid use in podcasts
• FCC = Federal Communication Commission, who keeps the !@#$% out of your radio broadcasts and the !!! off your TV
