Video Download for Podcast?

[coopersmom]

Since the podcast is going to video, as well as audio, I wondered if there would be a download version of the video podcast available?

I know several video podcasts--e.g. most of the Leo Leoporte TWIT network--that offer multiple iTunes feeds for various formats of the same shows (e.g. small video, large video, audio-only).

Just wondering if the Dis Unplugged is thinking of offering the video podcast for download, or if it will be live only?

Pete said on this week's show that it would be available on the DIS You Tube channel as well as on the podcast page via Live Stream. They're recording the live shows so that they go up as video for those who can't watch them live.

I think what coopersmom is asking, will there be an downloadable rss feed for the video? Unlike having to stream it while on the You Tube or Live Stream site or app. I use BeyondPod to download various shows and watch them later on my smartphone. Trying to stream from a website, or with an app, the video is usually choppy and buffers a lot, which is very distracting.

BTW, coopersmom, I watch a lot of Leo's shows too.

Thanks.

The show will be available on demand to stream (via LiveStream and YouTube), but we do not plan (right now) to have it available for download. The bandwidth costs alone for that would be astronomical.

Is there an anticipated date for the first podcast?

Yes, that was what I was wondering and thank you Pete for the answer (see above). I do understand your reasoning.
