Subscribe via iTunes • If you have iTunes, you can use it to subscribe to any podcast channel • Select the "Subscribe to Podcast" option from the "Advanced" menu in iTunes.
Subscribe via MyYahoo or MyMSN • If you have a MyYahoo or MyMSN account, you can easily add any podcast channel to that account. The podcast channel will simply appear as a new module, and each new "post" will appear as a new "headline" on your personalized page.
