Yeah the situation really sucks and I think it is hurting us a bit. What angers me the most is that it is beyond my control. I have to rely on others to be motivated enough to fix it. The same applies to Odeo - I have already sent them one email. Now I am hoping that their ping realises that the feed is no longer updated and they delete it - but I wonder how loing that takes. What they need is as you suggest - or some sort of author notification service... SOMETHING! Thanks again and glad you are still listening and reading. Thanks for the support Rob.

I've ranted about this on my blog before [http://www.podcastnyc.net/blog/2006/07/killing-podcasting-one-vc-dollar-at.html] but nothing is changing as far as I can see.
