ID3 Magazine – for podcaters – has announced that it’s ditching plans to launch as a paper magazine in the shops. Instead it’s saving trees by refunding subscribers and will become a “mere” website. They “underestimated” the complexity of the project.

Well I’m not too disappointed. I prefer a multi-media website to a PDF format, the way PodcaterIUser Magazine has gone. PDFs are too much bother for me, and have no interaction.

The self-interested good news is that they will share advertising revenue with contributors – of whom I am one.

My credentials at the We Media conference were for ID3. I’ve sent ID3 an audio interview with two leading British podcasters at the “We Media” fringe. Adam Curry didn’t show as billed for the main event.
