I think the questions are too vague, and could not answer them. When you say 'podfic', do you mean an original fic that was recorded by parties A, or originally written by parties A and recorded by parties B? And then C? What if C's recording was better than B's?
Plus, AUs are more transformative then, say "What happened After book 7 of Harry Potter?"
Basically for me it boils down to And Then John was a Zombie. The original fic is DooM's very own My Immortal, but the 'podfic' is AWESOME. In that sense the podfic is transformative of the fanfiction itself.
