Podcasting in iTunes 4.9

Posted at May 23, 2005

Sixapart writes today that iTunes 4.9 will support podcasting.

“Current plans call for podcasts to be free downloads: Users will submit their podcasts and Apple will be hand-picking the content it makes available to iTunes users.”

Interesting. I hope I understand this right, that some handpicked podcasts will show up in iTunes, but that you can use iTunes for other podcasts if you want. I like the new RSS feature in Safari a lot. So it would be great if there could be a clever way to integrate the RSS-feeds already in Safari, with a smart way to do it iTunes. As of today, RSS in Safari does not support enclosures.

Update: O’Reilly Radar has more details.
