I dunno, plenty of the podcasts I listen to have the blog part. Many of them even use WordPress, which at it's core is a blogging app. As for iTunes, that's Apple's deal, don't blame the podcasters, many of whom do try to supply good/useful metadata and hyperlinks. I haven't tested too many podcatching clients, but if someone wanted to add in features to one that emphasized metadata, that would be nice. I think we're very lucky that the FireANT guys believe strongly in making that metadata available in the client. Of course I tend to watch videoblogs on my computer, where the metadata is useful, while I tend to listen to podcasts in the car where I can't do anything with metadata. >>Terminology isn't important.
