As I’m sure many of you know by now, the latest version of Apple’s iTunes has podcasting support. More than that, it comes offering over 3000 podcast channels. Ah, finally a major vendor that is legitimizing podcasts… perhaps I should have made this a podcast.

“The new Podcast Directory in iTunes 4.9 features over 3,000 free audio programs, making it one of the largest Podcast directories in the world, with favorites such as ABC News, Adam Curry, BBC, Clear Channel, The Dawn and Drew Show, Disney, Engadget, ESPN, Newsweek and NPR member stations such as KCRW in Los Angeles and WGBH in Boston,” notes Apple in the announcement.
