I discovered something wonderful last week, feedburner.com have started offering podcast download counting as part of their free service! This means that instead of just counting subscribers I can actually keep count of how many people download each show over time.

It hasn't been a full week yet, but the numbers are encouraging. On Diffusion Science Radio we may only have around 500 regular subscribers that feedburner can count, but in the last six days we have had 5,496 downloads of 81 shows. Ten times more downloads than subscribers! I can finally talk the same language as other podcasters.
My personal podcast has slowed while I've fought off the Lurgi since the end of May, and I'm still fighting. I haven't posted up my last two broadcasts. However in the last six days there have been 2,080 downloads of my personal podcast, despite only 130 incredibly patient subscribers. The most popular items this week are Demand One Demand, Dolphin Terrorists, Caramel Cars, What Women Look For, and Happy Semen.
