All the competing multimedia players, formats, and codecs have broken digital multimedia. Is it really necessary to have this many media players, add-ons, and codecs installed to be able to open videos and music? And what about my files in ten years?

Cnet's Buzz Out Loud Podcast

Words by Daniel Aleksandersen on 2007-03-12

My favourite Podcast is Cnet's Buzz Out Loud with Molly Wood, Veronica Belmont and Tom Merritt.

Generic Podcast logo It is not directly related to open source, free software nor Linux. But I would still recommend the show here as it covers daily tech news and focus on consumer's rights, drawbacks with DRM, and other topics of that kind. They also cover cool gadgets and Web news! It is a fun and interesting round up of the last day's major news in a daily show. Definitely worth listening too.

Subscribe to Buzz Out Loud in MP3.

I have been a long time listener to the show (over a year or so), and I must say it is one of the best internet treasures you can get for free! And hey!? Molly Wood is on the show!
