Podcasting Goes Pay-to-Play

It was bound to happen. I wonder if there's a new business model for the music biz lurking in here - not a subscription a la Napster, but something else ... hmmm.

For the last year, people have been wondering - how to make money off podcasts? Some have dabbled with advertising, some with user donations, but now the most popular podcast on iTunes is moving to a subscription model. Bit-Tech is reporting that the Ricky Gervais Show will cost $7 a month starting next week.
