[...] What is podcasting? This is our view of the phenomenon podcasting. Written by Endal right after we had to shut down the MP3 feed of our podcast. [...]

Yeah I know that ITunes can be run in Windows, but it's still Mac software. That applies to Quicktime as well. I can't stand it! Hehe. Anyway, party on!

One thing the people should keep in mind. Podcasts are not tied to Macs. They aren’t tied to iTunes, nor iPods.

You can listen to podcast to your Windows or Linux, it’s not a limitation.

You can find a good list about good clients, catchers so to say, and start subscribing.

I’ve tweeted with Karin Høgh, the mentioned podcast expert, about this. Here is what she says:

“never heard about a case like this before – strange to think that only iTunes files are podcast”

“Still the ignorance about podcasting surprises me too”

“it is a weird standpoint – podcasting is mp3 also”

Partybear: I’m sorry to hear that. We want the podcast to be as available as possible, but we can’t keep the mp3 feed at this point. Maybe it will be back sometime. I hope you’ll be able to run iTunes for Windows and keep listening. Or if you just get the Quicktime codec you can download the m4a files. And there’s always the online on demand streaming if all else failes.

BeNizl: Thanks for your enthusiasm.

Haha, no screw that; set up an Automator job on a Uni Mac which downloads the podcast, exports to MP3, copies it to a shared location and emails me a notification. WIN.

@partybear Well iTunes runs natively on your Windows box too…

… But I don’t have anything except Linux boxes which /can’t/ run iTunes. Now this is a bastard of a position but fucked if I’m going to let some bastard in a 3-piece cage tell me I can’t get my favourite podcast so I guess I’ll have to set up Windows in a virtual machine /just to run iTunes and get my fix of fjord music/. Ridiculous.

Not that I blame you innotune boys in any way, of course! Just keep cranking out those filthy beats you crazy viking bastards

This is so stupid! I'm sick of idiotic labels playing on the big drum. Sorry guys, I don't want to have anything to do with Mac, so you just lost a listener.

The sad part here is if our show gets really, really popular – it will be distributed as mp3 illegally anyways. Just not by us.

Luckily the iTunes podcast is actually better for the listeners due to the enhanced media. But now everyone needs to get iTunes/Quicktime or an iPhone. We should get commission from Apple on the sales of iPod/iPhones for this
