Hmmm. You're right, I wasn't imagining him actually doing any of the recording, just assembling recordings of performers submitted to him into a downloadable format. And I don't necessarily mean studio recordings. Recordings of con performances might be better. I know there are often permissions issues with these that I am not enough of an insider to fully understand, but it seems that quite a few cons have recording soundboards.

That does mean there's administrative overhead in tracking down and assembling recordings, and there might not be something to podcast for everyone.

When I mean "highlighting," I mean a selection of recordings (not necessarily lots) by the artist or songwriter so that I have something to use as a basis for voting.
