The strength of webcast also gets a nod too in the week that the Guardian ups its own podcast production. According to the paper’s story, the Philharmonia orchestra was the first British orchestra to podcast and ran a webcast of a concert last year that garnered 600,000 hits.
Yesterday, the International Herald Tribune reported that Universal Music’s Deutsche Grammophon and Decca labels will be making concerts by 10 orchestras available on iTunes.
