"Podcast" Question

[Deb]

I posted this question over in the Sansa View Forums and nobody has answered me yet so I'm hoping someone over here can help me out.

I have the 16G View and I want to load "podcasts" on it....actually I want to subscribe to them.....can I do that if they are in an "itune" format or is there a way to convert them so my View can play them? I have had success in dl them when they have an "RSS" link.

Please excuse my elementary expressions....I'm not up to date on all the computer-eze vocabulary.

If anyone can help me out....please explain it to me in very elementary terms. :-)

Thanks-

I don't have the View, but an E200, but most podcasts are mp3s, so you can subscribe to those in iTunes and listen to on your player. The videos are in a format I have to convert before viewing.

How do I get those podcasts which are mp3s into my View?

same as any music file, it will be treated exactly the same.

Are podcasts on Itunes in MP3?

The View picks up Podcasts by the genre and puts them into a separate Podcast section. If you have an MP3 file that isn't strictly a Podcast change the ID3 tag "genre" to "podcast" (without the quotation marks) and it will be sectioned off.

I have no idea if itunes podcasts are, but most on the Internet are. If there is a free podcast on itunes you can normally find it on the web some were
