Canadian Tech Roundup – Episode 0

I finally got around to recording a podcast version of my Canadian Tech News series.

Co-hosted by my old friend Notian episode 0 is meant to be a dress-rehearsal/proof of concept. I’ve already identified a few issues and I’m sure Ian will have suggestions of his own. But please feel free to leave feedback. Technical or otherwise.

The intro music is KDR Assault by Binärpilot.

One reply on “Canadian Tech Roundup – Episode 0”

Good first podcast, guys. To the CBC story, a friend of mine works on a couple of CBC shows, and a few years ago I asked him about changing the intro music to Q. (My beef being that the opening music is the opening to Radiohead’s Planet Telex, and while I do like the song, shouldn’t a CBC show be supporting Canadian artists? Particularly because what’s used on Q is not a particularly thrilling loop of the Radiohead song, and a Canadian band could certainly write something equally appropriate… but I digress). Anyhow, this friend of mine told me that they couldn’t change the music even if they wanted to because they’re so locked in to this contract with APM Music. Take a look at this post on Ars for more details: http://arstechnica.com/media/news/2010/10/cbc-radio-fans-crabby-over-creative-commons-snub.ars
Looking forward to the next podcast.
