The growing demand for podcasts and on-demand listening

The growing demand for podcasts and on-demand listening. How does BBC World Service make decisions about which programmes are podcast?

A listener in Bangalore asks if the BBC could podcast all of its non-news programmes so Over To You explores the growing demand for podcast and on-demand listening.  With the help of Andrew Caspari, the BBC’s head of speech radio and classical music, interactive, and Dmitry Shishkin, digital development editor for BBC Global News, we find out about the decisions which go into deciding which programmes are podcast and look ahead to an on-demand future and how that could bring greater access to the BBC's archives.
