Toronto, ON (May 17, 2006) - Canada’s first comprehensive podcasting survey is underway. Released on May 12, 2006, this study is aimed at discovering what is happening with podcasting in Canada; audience sizes and characteristics, popular podcasts and topics, audience demographics, and more.

According to recent study by Forrester, there will be 12-million podcast listeners by the year 2010, and until now there has been no specific research done on the technology in Canada.

Podcasting is still seen as a grey area, something most people have heard of, but isn’t fully understood. The goal of this survey and its findings are to better understand the growth of podcasting in Canada and how quickly Canadians are adopting this new form of technology.
