Music lost quality on a podcast?
I'm a musician and one of my songs was recently included on a podcast. However, on this podcast, the sound quality to my song (and my song only) was really poor. On the actual recording that I sent, the sound quality pn it was absolutely fine. But then when I heard it on this podcast, the sound quality was a lot poorer than usual. Nobody elses song on this podcast seemed to be effected - just mine!
(A description of the bad sound quality would be that it was less clear sounding and was 'clipping' a lot - these issues are not apparent on the recording I sent).
What do you think happened? Can any musical/technical people shed light on this?

Once a recording leaves your possession its at the mercy of whomever uses it..... It could be over-compressed, the audio signal clipped and distorted and / or re-recorded over and over again degrading sound quality...
If possible resend another copy and / or make it available in high quality to whomever may want it.....
Obviously they did some kind of compression or bit reduction. Likely both.
