    I just want to mention a very good and clear to use software with podcasting tools build in that I have been using every since I choose to buy editing software: WaveLab Essential 6. Can be found for about $99.00 and I am very pleased with it. I would like to see a review about it here. I can give it 5 stars! All the vendors referenced on this site I think have it.

    I linked to the manufacture website.

    Thanks
    Martin

    I found something you might definitely be excited about.

    I know that it’s been too long that we have been waiting to see a tool enabling us, creative media
    professionals, to manage and publish digital media content locally or over secure peer to peer networks.

    It takes too long and it’s not secure.

    We need Fast and Secure delivery.

    I found something and it’s here.

    The long wait is over and now we have 2 powerful tools we can use:

    MatchBox, a revolutionary, content management and distribution appliance that easily fits on any desktop while incorporating MAVRIC Media’s next generation media management, production and file transport tools.

    “SaleBOOST facilitates digital downloads of huge files through our e-commerce engine, and for the first time, we have the ability to electronically deliver our tutorials to the video gamer who does not want to wait for their DVD to arrive in the mail,”

    Isn’t it all exciting?
    If you want to see for yourself you can see them at:
    http://www.mavricmedia.com or you can check their booth out at Siggraph 2008
