Electric Groove Crusade: Recent Episodes
Dave Jackson
There is nothing more powerful than the almighty RIFF. I love great guitar-based music that makes you want to dance, bang your head, shake your butt, and as a guitar player think, "I bet that is fun to play."
Companies have come back to this model time and time again. Here is a quick history lesson:
- Podshow/Mevio 8/2005 – 4/2014 (116 months – 38.8 million dollars spent)
- Podango 9/2006 – 12/2008 (27 Months)
- wildvoice.com 7/2006 – 7/2009 (36 months)
- mypodcasts.com 2007 – 2011 (estimated 48 months)
- Audiometric.io 11/ 2012 – 8/2014 (21 months before being purchased by panoply and taken off the market)
- Opinion Podcasting 11/2015-10/2017 (23 months)
- Zcast 1/2016 – 1/2019 (36 months)
That is an average of 43 months. It's even less if we were to removed Mevio who went through 38.8 million dollars.

Here is a brief history of Anchor.fm
February 9, 2016, They Launch, “we recently raised over $1.6MM”

Sep 28, 2017 – they announce that their latest funding “bringing our total amount raised to nearly $15M”
February 3rd, 2018 – Anchor 3.0 that seems to promise the ability to upload whatever you want, as much as you want, and get as many downloads as you want for free. What a great business model (?)
