iTunes Adds Support for Podcasting

As expected, Apple has released a new version of iTunes which supports Podcasting. The integration into iTunes is great and, unfortunately for ODEO, I prefer it to the alternatives since I don’t have duplicate Podcasts sitting around on my disk now (well, atleast I don’t have to manually remove them). I will say that, currently, ODEO seems to have a better selection of what Apple is calling ‘Indie’ Podcasts — but I’m sure that will change as more folks register with Apple to have their PodCasts added to iTunes.

Tangentially, this morning while working out I was listening to the DSC and heard that the CastBlaster beta is available for download. So I rushed to the website and found out it’s only available for Windows. Ugh! Fortunately, it looks like Apple is pushing GarageBand as a Podcast recording studio. I haven’t tried it yet, but perhaps over the weekend I’ll experiment with recording a Podcast. I haven’t the faintest idea as to what I’ll speak about though.

    I just got my 2000t and all of my songs are skipping in iTunes, and I cant figure out why. If someone could help me out and tell me how to fix this I would really appreciate it because its driving me crazy. Thanks for the replys.

    Kristopher,

    Are you talking about an HP DV2000T (Windows box)? Unfortunately, I only have Macs, so I cannot reproduce your problem. But a quick Google search points to a site which says that upgrading to iTunes 7.0.2 resolves the issue. Have you tried that?

    Good luck,
    Sean
