The number of podcasts visible on the iTunes Store is a choice made by
the podcaster. For newsier things a few is appropriate while for more
evergreen things a large number is suitable. The podcasts may still
be freely available through other means.

Thanks for trying to answer my question but unfortunately your answer
needs some translation for this neophyte.
Those are all very good questions. My best advice to you is to ignore my
previous answer and stick to iTunes. Go back to my previous, previous
answer about using the Advanced menu in
Some podcasts aren't indexed very far back. I have some that go back over a
year, others go back a couple of weeks.

Podcasts are ephemeral. It is not like stamp collecting. Listen and
delete!

I should have been clearer for others...I think Tom knows what I meant. But
if you for example, delete a podcast you subscribe to and then resubscribe
it will show you all podcasts it has. This is what may go back days or
months or longer. I learned a long time ago not to keep podcasts, they
I was not clear. Many radio show websites have archives. I can listen
to these on my computer. I would like to download these older archived
files to an MP3 (or other portable digital) player.

From what I can tell one can only get a few recent programs from
iTunes and that iPods only work (well?) using iTunes. QUESTION 1:
Is that true? QUESTION 2: Are there any combinations of software
and hardware that one can use to put old ARCHIVED programs on a PDP?
I pretty much only use my
Right click and select 'save as' and you should be able to download the
file. If it's an mp3 you are fine, if not there are tools to convert.

Couple of points. Yes, there are some podcasts which only keep a few
recent episodes available at any point in time. Case in point, my
favorite, Car Talk, in the iTunes Store shows only the two previous

subscribe, you get the
I like Paula primarily use my iPod for Podcasts. I also agree with her
recommendation on how you can import archived programs into iTunes. I
believe the reason iTunes limits what is archived deals with bandwidth
and the storage space that the podcaster has associated their feed.

If you mount the iPod as a disk the directories used by iTunes are
hidden. However there are several third-party programs that will give you
access to them. In fact, if you access the volume using FTP you can see
these directories too.

1) What is meant by mount the iPod as a disk?
2) What are some of the several third-party programs?
3) What is meant by access the volume?
4) How does one use FTP?
Stephen,
Here is my recommendation:
1. Download and install iTunes.
2. Download all the MP3 files you can find for podcasts.
3. Import them into iTunes.
4. update your player via iTunes

I have been told that iPods will not accept podcasts directly but from
iTunes. Is that correct? I would like to be able to download archived
podcasts that are available on many sites. What should I be looking for
in an iPod or similar devise?

An ipod will accept any mp3 file. 99.9% of all podcasts are mp3 so you are
fine. Don't forget, there were podcasts quite a while before itunes picked
them up.
