Good news from CBC as they’ve introduced a host of new podcasts, including some of their most popular shows. I still think that they can get even more innovative by offering customized podcasts based on subject interest, but this is a nice step in the right direction.

About time
I was one of the 10,000 people who took the CBC survey on podcasting. I am very excited to finally see the CBC offer so many of their great programs available for download.
An Improvement But Much More Work To Go
I also participated in the survey and am happy to see some movement. However the amount of content available is still way too low.
I’d like to be able to pick and choose from all the segments in the past week as opposed to listening to their prepackaged “best of” versions.
