EarthCore to be the first paid-download Podcast on iTunes
Scott Sigler, the sci-fi/horror novelist who first revolutionized both podcasting and the publishing worlds with the release of his first free podcast novel has done it again and has put Earthcore back in the spotlight as the first paid-download podcast in the iTunes music store.
The unabridged 15 hour audiobook, published by Conquer the World Records, will be available on the iTunes music store for $9.99. The free serialized version will continue to be available in its original podcast format from Podiobooks.com.
Scott Sigler annouced to the members of his online mailing list that the model which he plans for the release of his upcoming books will begin with an audio podcast of the book, followed by the print release followed by a paid audio book download.
Since releasing EarthCore, Scott Sigler wrote and published his second novel Ancestor, which was delivered free of charge to an audience of over 11,000 internet listeners. His third podcast novel, Infection, is slated for it’s podcast only serialized release starting the 11th of March.

Hello webmaster I came across this posting after googling for download ringtones. Thanks for the interesting read. I have often thought about EarthCore to be the first paid-download Podcast on iTunes too. Thanks for sharing. On Monday I will have time to look into it more.
