Radio Station & Podcaster in one

Now for less than $3K, you can be the next Barry Gray, Howard Stern, Dan Ingram or Big Wilson. Some traditional radio stations are getting worried about their disappearing audience so they're turning to podcasting. The problem is their podcasting the same thing that's responsible for driving listeners away to begin with. Now they're going to have to deal with 7-11 clerks who might use this device to parlay their audience into a national talk show. What are the chances of that happening? There used to be a time when an aspiring radio talent would have to hone his skills and pay his dues being a one man band in a small radio station. If he made enough money to be able to rent an apartment without having to share it with the evening disk jockey, he was doing well. But now, all of that inconvenience can be bypassed for the cost of a cheap broadcasting course.

WorldVibrations Radio Station & Podcaster : March 2006 : THE Journal: "WORLDVIBRATIONS has introduced a device that integrates, in a single appliance, Internet and/or conventional broadcasting with podcasting. The WorldVibrations Radio Station & Podcaster combines the functions of a fully automated radio station with streaming media encoding and the ability to create and upload podcasts without interrupting “on air” programming. Users with no previous radio experience can produce, schedule, broadcast, and podcast programming of all kinds. The system allows any school to create an educational radio network that can be used to offer courses and lectures, provide cultural programming, and give students an opportunity to receive valuable media training. Connect to a PA system, satellite uplink, or, with a license, a transmitter. Price: $2,850
