One of the nice things about XML is that it is eXtensible. So, for
example, Apple defined some special "itunes" tags in addition to the
basic RSS ones, which suit their purposes.

It might make sense for you to use standard podcast RSS, but with the
metadata embedded e.g. as RDFa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDFa . The
CC website http://creativecommons.org/license , for example, generates
a HTML fragment for you with such metadata embedded - you could put
that into the feed items, no problem. I don't know which software
could make use of that information...

Hello LAUs,
I would like to publish (online, of course!) my "very" old music
adventures, (and hopefully new ones, made under Linux), but in a
Feed/Blog/*cast style.
But after a short research i realized that (at least) RSS and Atom are
suboptimal for my (music) needs. Just look at the Item/Entry Elements:
http://www.rssboard.org/rss-specification#hrelementsOfLtitemgt
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc4287#section-4.1.2
some additional Elements would be nice, like:
Cover
Recorded
Released
Album
Track
Length
etc...
and as a CC/FLOSS bonus -> Source :)
(as in source for the ogg/mp3 audio).
So, anyone know of a syndication format tailored for music ?
MfG
Andre "Osku" Schmidt
ps. or am i the only one with this itch ?
