Bill, Can't see how that would work, because Apple TV syncs with iTunes on your computer, which means your iPoddable feed. You could have a separate feed but this would effectively be a separate podcast - and would you expect your viewers to subscribe to both? Waz --- In

I guess the assumption would be that your viewers would subscribe to one feed or the other, depending on which hardware they owned. Its not ideal but it may be ideal for some viewers, depending on how fussy they are about getting the best possible qualiy on their device. Unfortunately these

The only reason NOT to go with separate files, in my opinion, is based on ranking in the charts. For instance, if you have 2 or three dif quicktime feeds, it starts to divide your itunes audiences and then you dont get reported on any charts. There is some discovery loss for people who
