		<description><![CDATA[I tried listening to a podcast replay on my computer, with extra speakers and an amplifier. I still couldn&#039;t make out half of what was said. The audio technology needs to advance to at least early &#039;50s hi-fi level. I get better sound from an old AT&amp;T phone, though that&#039;s unfair - those old phones were state-of-the-art narrowband mono, unequaled by today&#039;s cheap cell phones.

In short, don&#039;t consider this a career enhancement, just yet. Even if the sound quality improves, there&#039;s still the Neilsen ratings hurdle, once/if Neilsen takes podcasting seriously. Remember, if there&#039;s no audience, you&#039;re just singing in the shower.]]></description>
