"Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. is launching a podcasting show on May 13, hosted by smooth-talking ex-MTV VJ Adam Curry," reports Silicon Valley Watcher"
"The four-hour weekday show will feature a selection of amateur podcasts handpicked by Curry. Sirius subscribers, who pay $12.95 a month for the service, can listen to the show on channel 148, "Talk Central"."
Is this the start of a crucial crossover moment for podcasting? Or is it more about a traditional broadcaster getting his elbow back in the game?
It's not apparent whether there is payment for the podcasters who get chosen by Curry (which could kick up a stink, since the Sirius channel carries advertising) but it's another move forward for a legion of amateur DJs out there.
