The induced momentum spectrum of soft gluons radiated from a high energy quark produced in and propagating through a QCD medium is reexamined in the BDMPS formalism. A mistake in our published work [Phys. Rev. C 60, 064902 (1999)] is corrected. The correct dependence of the fractional induced loss $R({\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\mathrm{cone}})$ as a universal function of the variable ${\ensuremath{\theta}}_{\mathrm{cone}}^{2}{L}^{3}\mathrm{q\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}},$ where L is the size of the medium and $\mathrm{q\ifmmode \hat{}\else \^{}\fi{}}$ the transport coefficient is presented. We add the proof that the radiated gluon momentum spectrum derived in our formalism is equivalent with the one derived in the Zakharov-Wiedemann approach.
