It's not the Non-Compete Clause that is bothersome. This is a standard of many contracts. What is deplorable is the assignation of the copyrights and ownership of all intellectual property related to the podcaster's show to Podshow. That is ridiculous. And something that according to Adam Curry on his Daily Source Code, Podshow decries. That's where the problem lies. You can't disparage Big Radio or Big Record Companies for sticking it to the little guy, build your own podcast version of Big Radio and not be pegged for a hypocrite.
