Podcasts in Windows Media Player, Winamp, and Other Programs

If you prefer to use other programs like Windows Media Player, you need software to “aggregate” your podcasts. Some players don’t automatically go grab the new episodes of the podcasts you subscribe to. That’s where the aggregator comes in. You add the podcast to the aggregator, and the aggregator makes sure it shows up in the player. We recommend the free iPodder Lemon 2.2 Beta. Just follow the simple instructions on the site to download and install the program. When you click “Subscribe” on Yahoo! Casts and choose "Open" on the subsequent file dialog, iPodder Lemon will recognize the .pcast file and add your subscription to the “Subscriptions” tab in iPodder. From there, you can check for updates to your podcast subscriptions and manage your downloads. iPodder knows to synch the podcast episodes you have downloaded with your preferred player.
