Podcasting - Apple styleeee

Steve Jobs has apparently announced today that the next update for iTunes will allow you to easily subscribe to podcast feeds and have them seamlessly moved to your iPod.

Now I don't particularly want to listen to Tom, Dick and Harry's homemade reviews of the latest mobile phones or Game Boy, but I think there is great potential hear to be able to listen to radio programmes when you want to.

The BBC is running a trial of this at the minute and I have been downloading episodes of the Saturday morning 5live show Fighting Talk to listen to on the train to London. Great stuff! Try it out by downloading the file here and imagine how cool it will be when you just have to type this in once and then every week iTunes goes off and gets the new one. (Broadband of course is essential!)
