Not sure what section we'd fall under, but Podcast Spot at http://www.podcastspot.com can help get you up and running. Simply create your media file, send it to us, and we'll do the rest!

WildVoice looks promising though people interested in using this service should keep in mind that bandwidth is restricted to a monthly 250 MB. For people who want to give podcasting a try that's more than enough. If a podcast gets successful there might be problems.

Thanks for including WildVoice in you list. I just wanted to add a quick clarification. WildVoice Podcast Studio is Windows XP application that you can use to record your own podcasts. Windows Vista support is coming, but still in testing. Our web site WildVoice.com works with all systems and browsers. It also includes an in-page recorder so you can record your shows using just a browser on Windows in Firefox or IE. Also, you can record your show using any tool and always upload it to WildVoice.com.
