You’re not getting it. I understand the aim. I’m asking how it can solve that problem if it doesn’t have massive mindshare for podcasters to use and submit to?

Because simply having another directory in existence and requesting people submit their feed to it isn’t going to be easy. And if the index doesn’t have the content, it is useless, regardless of its mission.

As for not having mind share, that's not necessarily a reason to just throw in the towel. Lot's of problems have this kind of chicken and egg scenario. Get something up and running and then try to chip away at the mindshare problem by getting podcasters to list there and podcast players to use this directory.
