Steve Rosenbaum (who I keep running into in the strangest places) turned me on today to really amazing tool called the Broadcast Machine from the folks at Downhill Battle (who I promise not to call silly anymore). I got excited about broadcatching (BitTorrent + RSS) about a year ago after struggling to make feature film downloads work financially. Now an organization that spawned from people resisting the RIAA have birthed an interesting new weapon for indie filmmakers, especially since it could dove-tail with other initiatives. I suspect it will take filmmakers a bit longer to realize how podcasting was just a warm up for them broadcatching, and by then they'll be glad they have something that makes it easy.
