Peers. Yes, that covers it beautifully. Thank you for coming up with the word that was eluding me there :)
As for the rest, I tend to feel the same way towards it all as you do, as long as I'm provided with a copy and/or linked I'm fine ... though I once had someone ask to translate a fic of mine into Chinese and the link was great save for the fact that I couldn't read a word of what was written and Google Translate back then was pretty sad. Even sadder than today.
I can honestly say though, I never put any thought into podfics or remixes until I read your post on the subject. Gotta say, remixes just strike me a bizarre. I mean, really seriously bizarre. And podfics ... I really see your point there. I have a certain "voice" in my mind when I write. I know how each of my characters sound in any given situation and it would be very easy for someone to completely change the tone of a story just by providing the wrong "voice" to a situation.
And I seriously need to consider doing a blanket statement, even if that little voice is accusing me of being a total egoist to even think that I'd need it.
