It seems like you need to trim a couple of letters off the end of the link as there's an extra '>.' that doesn't belong. Dan: Thanks for finding the feed.

That should help "open" things up a bit. As you probably know, I always try to include links to multiple media formats whenever possible. In some cases, the formats are limited, and it's too bad. But I definitely think that one format (while not ideal) is better than nothing. Dan Hi there,

Yeah, it's technically free, but, like "RealPlayer," still corporate. Why don't sites use repositories like archive.org and use basic RSS for distribution?
