In a 4:50 minute podcast interview, Nick Sheppard talks about OA and how price barriers interfere with his research. Shepperd is the Repository Development Officer at Leeds Metropolitan University.
He describes the interview briefly on his blog, but doesn't tell us who the interviewer is, the occasion, or the date. The version at the link above cuts out at minute 4:50 in the middle of a sentence.

The open access movement:
Putting peer-reviewed scientific and scholarly literature
on the internet. Making it available free of charge and
free of most copyright and licensing restrictions.
Removing the barriers to serious research.
I recommend the OA tracking project (OATP) as the best way to stay on top of new OA developments. You can read the OATP feed on a blog-like web page or subscribe to it by RSS, email, or Twitter. You can also help build the feed by tagging new developments you encounter.
