iTouch Apps and Video

Go to the iTunes store, and click on podcasts on the left. My favorite is the Sick and Wrong podcast, but it’s pretty sick and wrong! Take your time browsing – there’s a lot of really good stuff, and it’s all free. Once you’ve picked a podcast you want to download, click the “Get Episode” button all the way to the right. Wait for it to download (shouldn’t take very long), and when it’s finished, it will show up in “Podcasts” in your iTunes library. If your iPod is set to auto-sync, it should automatically copy to your iPod. If not, just drag and drop it onto your iPod while it’s connected.

You can also choose to subscribe to a podcast, which is how iTunes rates the popularity of podcasts. When you choose to subscribe, iTunes will automatically download the most recent episodes for you – or it’s supposed to, anyway. Sometimes it gets a little buggy, but it’s still nice to subscribe to podcasts that you support – it’s a lot easier to find them again that way!
