Yahoo Podcast Search
Yahoo got out in front of the podcasting trend with its new Podcasts Search (Beta)
site after a study the search giant published with Ipsos Insight, which disclosed that
most of the people who are using do so without even knowing it,127 Yahoo's audio
search option also finds podcasts, but if you are looking specifically for podcasts, the
Podcast Search site is better. Yahoo Podcast Search indexes metadata such as
keywords, categories, or user-generated topic tags to match queries to podcasts.
Users do not need to register at Yahoo to listen to podcasts, but registration is
required to subscribe to podcasts. Yahoo Podcast Search includes its own player
that launches at the site so users can listen to podcasts.
