Apparently quite by mistake Hugo Schotman has discovered that iTunes 4.9 not only downloads your audio files but somehow pulled down a PDF. I have a question out to him asking how they are doing this and the mechanics behind it. Imagine having photos or a small video to attach along with your podcast. We know that they are embedding some photo elements on the aac side of the house. This will be interesting to figure out how this works. [Hugo Schotman]
Sounds to me like a whole chapter in a podcast book could be done on the iTunes integration.
Any type of file can be enclosed in an RSS feed. I have been watching Vlogs for quite some time now. Vlogs are just videos in an RSS feed. Now that iTunes supports videos and am sure you can use it to subscribe to Vlogs now too. I think I might prefer FireANT for that though. Not to sure how much I like the Podcatching in iTunes. I wonder when the warez community is going to start putting warez in RSS feeds. Then the government will crack down and make RSS illegal.
