[consulting] Drupal multimedia: What modules?

[Theodore Serbinski]

For the Lullabot site,

We actually don't really use any modules :-)

We attach our podcasts to each node using the upload module. Then the  
RSS feed for each page will automatically include this audio file as  
an enclosure.

If you're looking to manage a lot of audio files, audio.module does a  
super job. And for creating playlists, check out playlist module,  
works like a charm!

Those are the only ones we have really dealt with. Hope that helps.
