I think the guy contradicts himself, by saying there's no censorship, but then goes on to name a bunch of exceptions.

Most censorship in China is self-censorship. Everyone knows where the line is. We don't need to be told by the authorities.

I predict that podcasting has an enormous future in China, where distribution infrastructure is weak and where the government controls the mainstream channels. Podcasting offers a means of circumventing these problems.
