Welcome to MyPOD V2

Welcome to MyPOD V2 - I hope you like it ... there are getting started videos below.

The ramble - scroll to features for meat....
While it is still possibly a little early - I have been working on MyPOD V2 for well over a year. My aim was to make the best internet player - MyPOD V1 went a good way but it was not possible to make it go 'all the way'. I think podcasting is the best model for free and open media but many 'podcasts' are blogs with embedded YouTube or SoundCloud feeds. The aim with V2 is to get the best value out of free media wherever it resides - be it on the open internet, blogs, or one of the content silos. The user is the only one who can harvest the message they are looking for and find the knowledge they need.

So your feedback is key. Tell me what irks you the most. Nothing is too stupid or obvious. email us on feedback at my-pod.org.
