You were lucky that you had an understanding audience. <Smile>

Even though I listen to the podcast using my Victor stream, it is still
neat to be notified that there is a new podcast.
I will tell you what I thought was a humorous experience. I was doing
an internet show on The Global Voice and as I was beginning to introduce
the show, all of a sudden Jonathan's intro came up and there was
Jonathan for the world to hear.
It gave me a chance to explain one of the benefits of Jaws 17. Plus it
gave FS some free publicity.

only tells you once. For people that have it setup for their phones, then
it makes sense to opt out of hearing the notice, as you said.

First thing I did when updating JFW was to opt out of this podcast thing.
Reading people's experiences, I'm even more glad I did.
Nothing against the podcast per say, but I already subscribe via an app
on my iPhone and don't need another alert on my pC.
I understand that some people use their PC for podcast consumption, but
if it's true that the episode starts playing without any prompting, well,
that was a poorly made decision on FS's part. Talk about obtrusive

I'd make the suggestion even stronger. FS shouldn't foist this added
information on us unless they give us the ability to listen on our own
time.
The first time the notification appeared, I was in the middle of typing
something and didn't realize the screen had switched. I had to recall what
I'd been writing and retype it. But it would be good to be alerted to the
new FSCast episode availability the way FS sends notices via "Check for
updates..."

I'm considering asking FS if they would mind placing a download button for
FS cast since I'm the kind of a guy who listens to pod casts at a time of
my own choosing and not really when I fire up my system first thing in the
morning.
Unless Eric reads this himself before I get around to writing that message
at least. What do some of you out there think about that suggestion?
