Far-reaching podcasts of WMWM/other stations

I'm putting podcasts of some WMWM shows on the site (http://www.wmwmsalem.com) Just got an email
from the host of "Stack-a-Records", a Saturday night show which shares its time slot with two other
shows (classic R&B on "Rent Party", "music with a central theme" on "Heart of Sat. Night"). The shows rotate,
which each show taking a turn each week.
Well, the host told me someone he knows from the Netherlands heard the podcast and enjoyed it.
Well, of course this is why I put them up, so people from far away can hear WMWM. It's good to know
that podcasts--and streamcasting--of local stations can do that. (We don't streamcast
actually)

yes someone out there is checking out my show, or maybe Tracks of the Town with Joe Vig helping
out Doug. Someone far away can hear the mighty 130 watt signal of WMWM in this way (or
other local stations). Mercy.
 
I've heard about that...actually the site is technically mine. It's the official site of the station but I
pay for it and if "asked" to take stuff down, I will. A quick look at that article seems to imply it's
more about campus computers being used by students to illegally download song files, not necessarily
a radio station putting up a podcast of a show.

This isn't a commentary on the quality of your podcast, but I'll bet it's mostly agents of the RIAA downloading your podcast, and they call it "collecting evidence". :(

College stations doing podcasts seems to be the fast track to getting your parent university in trouble.

No argument here about the RIAA being a pack of greedy maggots, however I highly doubt that the RIAA would give a rat's arse about someone podcasting RTZ, The Fools or The Stompers nowadays. (Or a 1989 performance of "The Star Spangled Banner" by Whitney Crackhead Houston).
