> > What must I install to listen to the science podcast? the issue isn't generally 'what' to use to listen to podcasts (most media players support playing sound from uri) the problem is finding the rss feed. this is quite intuitive with itunes - they have a huge database to search from. i never realized this was an issue until i switched to android (dogcatcher is 100x better than itunes but they still don't have the extensive db of feeds that itunes has). however, getting a feed aggregator program (like rhythmbox or possibly even google's rss might work for you) and searching '<topic> podcast rss' will get you results. however, with this search you'll find tons of people that offer things to listen to and you'll have to then search their site to figure out if they've got an rss feed for you. trust me, in order to really find enjoyment with podcasts, you'll want a program that can take the rss feeds, look for the media, download, and catalog it for you to listen to when you're ready.
all that said (though i don't use rhythmbox - i prefer my podcasts to be portable) i would go with andrew's suggestion of rhythmbox and search podcastdirectory for things you like. i think i can easily do a doggcatcher backup and come up with the rss uri's for you that i listen to / watch if you like (generally science, computer security, news) which may save you some time once you find a decent aggregator program. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
