I've seen a lot of "promoting your podcast" guides talking about using soundcloud as well as whatever else you're using to host. They all seem to assume that your files are hosted on Soundcloud, and then fed via RSS feed to wherever else you're making stuff available. I have no desire to move my files (currently hosted on Blubrry) to soundcloud, and re-jigger my RSS feed and whatnot. BUT I do think some of the soundcloud features ( most significantly the ability to create short sharing clips that can be used on Twitter, etc... and actually play media from within a social post) are attractive and useful. Therefore, my question(s):
1 - is there any way to populate my soundcloud list (or whatever) via my existing RSS feed? (I realize this is a soundcloud question, but what the hell...)
2 - is there any HARM to having files hosted on BOTH Soundcloud and Blubrry, but not using soundcloud's RSS feed... just having that as duplicate? Understanding of course that doing so means I won't get any soundcloud data from my Blubrry stats.
What say?
