I've had a public difference of opinion with Adam on this; I talk about it in my latest Radio Clash podcast http://www.mutantpop.net/radioclash/archives/2005/11/13/radio-clash-53-giving-it-to-the-man-with-a-ukelele-in-my-hand/ - and alsoin an interview on Bicyclemark's site: http://bicyclemark.org/blog/2005/11/bicyclemark82-the-right-of-podcast-and-mashup/

I still like to think mash-up artists create something new…they just use other tracks like bands use instruments – I think DJs are overrated anyway ;o) but that doesn’t mean they can’t throw a party !

Yes, true. You are absolutely right. Maybe Adam can tap into CCMixter if he wants to find legal mashups.

However, I think it would be a mistake to overlook the fact that most mashups are meant to fuck with pop culture. Meaning unauthorized sources…

It doesn’t mean no more mashups, just no more mashups with unauthorized sources.

This is really because Adam, the Podfather (TM), has sold out to the same big media corporate interests he (allegedly) fought so hard to get around when he “started” podcasting. Thanks buddy!
