Arbitron Starts Measuring Radio Podcasts

Arbitron has started testing the tracking of podcasts by encoding several radio station podcasts with its new "pod meter." According to MediaPost editor Joe Mandese, several podcasts offered during the week of July 18 by radio station WHTZ (Z100) FM in New York City were encoded in such a way that they require a special headset adapter that detects and records the unique identification codes found in the files.
