Apple iTunes 4.9 Is Available Now
Didn't take as long as we all expected. If you're use iTunes and you're interested in Podcasting then hop on over to Apple.com and download the lastest version of iTunes. Because ...tada ... iTunes 4.9 gives you the ability to subscribe to RSS feeds.
There is more to it then that. Apple apparently sucked in all the Podcasts from iPodder.org and Podcast.net and I guess every directory they can find. Because I'm seeing tons of Podcasts in the Apple iTunes online directory. In fact you have to focus carefully be cause Podcasts and music files sorta all look the same now at the iTunes website. There is a seperate search bar however to just look for you're favorite Podcast. If it's there you just click and it's available for you to download (one click) into your MP3 player.
Truly an amazing event. This brings Podcasting to millions of people all at once and simplifies the process consdierably of subscribing. You never even SEE and RSS feed URL. Nothing to copy and paste as before (assuming the Podcast is already in their directory). There is a place to manually submit new Podcast RSS feeds to the Apple iTunes directory for inclusion.
Go get it - have fun! Talking Portraits Interviews is there! I plan to add Podcasts for my corporate clients this week.
