There is now a W3C Multimedia Semantics Incubator Group, you may find
useful material on their mailing list etc.
http://www.w3.org/2005/Incubator/mmsem/

MusicBrainz is probably the best-known system, although last I heard
was they were backing away from RDF.

Amongst my bookmarks I also found:

Ontolog

MusiK
http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=26378&group_id=89874

Although the usual transport for podcasting, RSS 2.0, is a lost cause
when it comes to semantics, there is an "enclosure" module for RSS 1.0
(RDF) that may be useful:

In the same area there are also Atom, Yahoo! Media RSS and iTunes RSS
which all use namespaced XML, so are possible candidates for the GRDDL
mechanism:

http://www.w3.org/TR/grddl/

When retrieving audio from a HTTP server, it's usually thought of a
big binary one-URI object, but with a bit of hackery it's possible to
address media files with more granular URIs, see:
