iTunes 4.9: Podcasting Goes Mainstream

I know, I know. "Podcasting" sounds like radio programs for victims from "Invasion of the Body Snatchers." But it's not. Instead, it is a new distribution method for programs (i.e. music, talk, drama, etc.) that would formerly have been put out on the radio. The file is downloaded from the Net to iTunes and then automatically uploaded to your iPod the next time you connect. So, you can listen to your favorite programs whenever you want. It is almost TIVO for audio content. And it is now an automatic part of Apple's iTunes 4.9.

This does not mean any program you can get over the air, will now be available via iTunes. Some Podcasts and Broadcasts overlap, but the majority do not. Still, there are plenty of general interest Podcasts out there, and it is likely you will be able to find one that will tickle your fancy.
