iTunes is pretty good when it comes to managing podcast subscriptions.

Manny, what don't you like about iTunes? Why do you want an alternative?

Just to understand better.

Well, to be honest, I hated how it would lag my previous systems at times. That being said, I guess thats not an issue with this computer so maybe I should just stick with iTunes. Like Lee pointed out, I have yet to find a better podcast manager.

I think I remember IronMaxipad saying he was a fan of just adding RSS feeds for podcasts to Google Reader. You could just copy the podcast URLs from iTunes and try it out. I would imagine you already have a lot of GR feeds so it could get messy though.

Yeah GR gets hard to keep up with as is. I'm gonna try MusicBee linked above but otherwise I'll probably just stick with iTunes.

iTunes used to do that to my PC too. But it's been a while now since I don't see this problem anymore (more than a year). I'm guessing Apple fixed it.

Itunes sucks ass but downloading free shit is a pain in the ass. I would use limewire back in the day and a lot of times I would hear some voice telling me I won an Ipad when I tried to play a song that I had downloaded. Not worth it if you ask me. I just listen to the radio and cds. Downloading songs is too much work.
