learninginhand.com - Subscribe to Podcasts

The easiest way to have podcasts automatically downloaded to your Windows or Macintosh computer is to use iTunes software (free for Mac and Windows). If you used iTunes to find the podcast, you can simply click the button.

However, many podcasts are not listed in iTunes' directory or you may have found the podcast elsewhere. Another way to subscribe with iTunes is to look for a small icon (also known as a badge) that says iTunes. For example, if you click this badge , iTunes will open a window where you can click the button for the Radio WillowWeb podcast.

Unfortunately, many web pages for podcasts do not have the iTunes badge. Clicking the badge will show you the RSS feed for the podcast. If you drag and drop the badge from the web page into the iTunes Podcast window, iTunes will subscribe to the podcast and automatically download the latest episode.
