Like I mentioned in a previous message, we intend to transcribe DDN podcasts. But I would imagine that we'd be in the minority for doing that, as most amateur podcasters are focused on exploring new multimedia casting technologies rather than thinking about equity issues. Surprisingly, I don't see transcripts for WGBH's Morning Stories podcast, which I would have expected given WGBH's accessibility work. It might be because this is such a new medium that people just aren't considering the accessibility implications yet.
Of course, if you podcast video rather than audio, it's not very difficult to caption them...

Guys,
Dont forget that it probably doesn't support transcripts for deaf community.
I did talked about it in my recent blog...
