Can you actually get these shows in ipodder, or do you have to download the individual clients for these shows? I subscribed to artbell for awhile, but then canceled it. It would be neat if Tom Martino was podcast, the KHOW stream I listen to for it breaks up a lot, not sure that they're streaming 5 mbps or more, doubt the breakup happens as they may be a busy site.
