Melodeo Intros Podcast Portal

Former U.S. Senator John Edwards is one of the first national figures to podcast, and an early Melodeo user.

"Embracing new technology to encourage open and free discussion is an essential ingredient in a healthy democracy," said Edwards. "I get excited about any new services that allow people to easily make meaningful connections and engage in informed discussions."

In addition to Edwards' 'One America' podcast, Melodeo.com offers free access to hundreds of thousands of other podcasts, radio and soon video programs on a wide variety of subjects.

"Working with Melodeo allows AccuRadio to broadcast some of our most popular music channels to more than fifty cell phone models, reaching a potential audience of forty million U.S. consumers," said Kurt Hanson, CEO of AccuRadio.com, an independent multichannel Internet radio property.

In addition to the podcast portal, Melodeo plans to offer an advanced Web to mobile service as well as video programs.
