Subscribing to podcasts with iPhone/iPod Touch

November 22, 2008 by Nikos Anagnostou

I was complaining recently about the error one was about to get when attempting to subscribe to a feed with his iphone or iPod touch.
As if Apple was actually listening, the new version of the iPhone OS (2.2), remedied the problem: one can now use the mobile version of iTunes to subscribe to podcasts listed in the Apple Store(first pic).
There is an important difference though. Through iTunes, subscribing to the podcast feed is not an option. What you get instead is that you can select individual episodes to download. It’s better than nothing but this is stll a crippled podcatching. The question us why.
