[ale] like the tuxradar podcast

[Ron Frazier]

Aaron referred me to the TuxRadar podcast ( http://www.tuxradar.com/ ) 
in a prior post.  I've listened to a few, and like it, so thanks.  They 
provide OGG and MP3 files.  The download links say that OGG is high 
quality and MP3 is low quality (even though the bit rate is higher for 
MP3).  I can't really speak to the quality, but the OGG file is smaller, 
and my Sansa Fuze audio player supports it, so I downloaded that.

One thing I didn't like is that their RSS feed does not embed the media 
files.  They force you to go to their website to download the media 
file.  That doesn't work well for me, since I listen to about 20 
podcasts.  I rely on my RSS reader to automatically copy all the media 
files to a particular folder in the background while I'm doing other 
things.  Then I copy all of them to the player in mass.  So, I think 
I'll suggest to them that they have an RSS feed for MP3 and one for OGG 
and have embedded media files.  Other than that, very cool.

call on the phone.  I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy
mailing lists and such.  I don't always see new messages very quickly.)
