I share the same ideas as several of the previous posters.  As someone who
has definitely bootstrapped a podcast from HPR and it's, I think some
amount of syndication is a valuable tool.  More than a couple of the free
culture podcasts out there have done the same thing to either get
established or get some promotion.

As far as syndicating episodes of a another podcast, I also don't really
mind it.  I do think there should be at least some limit to the number of
episodes over a period of time.  In the past I think this has been handled
well.  If a podcast is wanting to post episodes more regularly than an
established time limit we as a community could help them establish their
own hosting and feed.  For example, Urandom's and my podcasts site and feed
cost less than $1 USD a month, and I'm sure we would be more than happy to
help anyone set up the same situation.  I think there is a way to support
new podcasts being initially created using HPR and then using the community
to help them become self-sufficient.

As far as attributing and acknowledging HPR...while I think it is a nice
gesture that is appreciated, I would not categorize it as necessary.  Just
my two cents.
