I'm not an iTunes fan, but this is pretty nice. I'll subscribe when the feature debuts on Monday(?)
Good move on Apple's part. Make friends with the ditto-heads... there are millions of them (er, us). Also, allowing this for other podcasts would permit others to generate revenue if their content has any real following.
ping
If you have asked to be added to this list, and havent been receiving the pings, please let me know. Ive had a problem with my file synchronization between my home and work computer, and apparently have lost some names on the list. I think I have the problem fixed, and will gladly re-add your name.
Apple previously announced short-term subscriptions to specific content, especially TV shows. Is Rush just using what became available, or was he one of those to push for this type of offering? I suspect the latter.
Anyway, good news.
I haven't listened to today's Rush podcast yet so forgive me if the question I am about to ask has been answered. I don't have an iPod and I don't want one. I use my Dell Axim X51v PDA as my main mobile music player. That said, I rely on the application that Rush has provided to 24/7 members to deliver the three mp3 files to my desktop. Will that continue after Monday? I don't want anything to do with iTunes. I like the way I currently get my Rush mp3 files.
