"I've found myself using my PC for a lot of conversations lately, and I'm also considering recording a podcast to share with anyone who will listen. There are tons of USB headset / microphones out there, and I'm hoping someone has some solid recommendations based on experience.

Shoddy reporting begets more shoddy reporting? "Sony's Blu-Ray format does not work DVDs" is completely wrong.
