Engadget has a bit on Apple's latest legal crusade:
Quote:
Robert Scoble -- whose own company, PodTech, may be at risk in this witch hunt -- has weighed in on the issue by suggesting that the tech community as a whole adopt other terms like "audiocast" and "videocast" (or alternately, "audcast" and "vidcast") to describe this type of content, while other folks feel that fighting Apple and generating a ton of negative press for Cupertino is the best solution.
Pod pod pod pod pod.... *runs from Apple lawyers*

The term pod has been around for a lot longer than Apple has. Maybe they'll sue Stanly Kubrick for using the word pod in 2001.

There once was a man named Bertold
Who drank beer when the weather grew cold
As he reached for his cup...
"NEEEEVER GONNA GIVE YOU UP!!!"
Oh, snap! You just got limerickrolled!
