Interesting. I had no idea. So you're saying all the podcasters are hosting their audios on their own self-hosted server instead of using a 3rd party podcast ho

  Nope, almost everyone has the files and the feed posted on blubrry, podbean, libsyn, or soundcloud, depending on your needs. While owning your own stack is nice, the benefits of an outside service almost always outweigh the cons. Blberry is the most premium of them, in both cost and freedom, but is notwworthy in that they 100% allow you to own your own feed. My podcast uses podbean as it's the cheapest (unless you publish infrequently, in which case soundcloud is), but the one killer feature blubrry has me considering switching for is the fact that you can walk with your feed at any time. edit: the reason being able to walk with your feed is so important is because it means you aren't tied to that content provider in any meaningful way (almost every podcatching application out there except for one just points at your RSS, or plays follow the leader with itunes). Forgot to mention that part.
