@ colin… in Garageband click on the “Share” menu at the top and choose send to iTunes.

I’ve recently installed ITunes 6, and have had problems downloading Podcasts (keep getting : “Network Connection Timed Out”…well, I’ve started using IPodder (free software) instead, and it works fine. It will send all your downloaded Podcasts to your ITunes.

I have had nothing but problems so far with podcasting. I try to subscribe to podcasts from NPR and get complaints that there are no shows available, or that the URL is malformed, etc. But I’m hopeful these glitches will shake out.
On a side note, I tried to report an error message and found I could not copy and paste the text of the error message from the dialog box. Whose grand idea was that? You used to be able to do that in OS X… sigh. Another example of how little attention Apple pays to interface detail any more.

I don’t get what that author’s argument is. He says that he likes podcasts and the freedom they bring, but then he says that offering that freedom to people causes problems.

It may be problems in other implementations, but iTunes seems to be done well enough, even though it’s already so huge! If a program like Musicmatch were to have the volume of features that iTunes has, and its complexity, it would be really messy and confusing. But not iTunes. Like most of the other apps that Apple makes, it’s really well done. Even some of my Windows-using friends like iTunes better than the other apps on their computers. As long as Apple doesn’t get too arrogant (which Steve Jobs has a problem with), then their design and style is what will separate them from other computer makers like Dell.

Aye, but some don't agree... ;) Podcasting Integration is bad! --

Podcasting wrapped in to iTunes in a painless, easy to use method, is a great thing, don’t get me wrong. However, it just creates more crap. Allowing anyone who wants to, regardless of their knowledge/skill to do something just asks for more junk. I mean, there is a lot of good, high-quality podcasts, however, the fact that it is so easy to put this stuff out here results in a lot of junk that no one really wants
