no new shows on itunes?

[Demon440]

The last show I see on itunes is from the 19th! Your messing me up I need my fix!

[joestros]

I noticed that as well.  LOL, I agree, I am missing my "FTL Fix".

Strange.  Feedvalidator.org says it's fine.  Itunes sucks sometimes.  Maybe try a reinstall?  Anyone else having this issue?

[digitalfour]

I am having no problems.

[joestros]

Still having issues.  I just updated iTunes to version 9.0.1.8 and the last show available is 9/19.  Did Apple change something on 9/20 or something?  I usually download from my iPhone but iTunes on the phone does the same thing.

Yeah - it appears that iTunes is behind on updating the FTL listings via the iTunes store, which is a nuisance for those of us who like to stream on an iPhone.  I emailed Ian and Mark because I was having the same problem and their tech guy emailed me back -- they're aware and are working on it.  

iTunes blows sometimes.  In my experience as a podcaster, I've found it very hard to control what shows up when as far as a podcast. When you update a podcast, sometimes iTunes picks it up quickly, sometimes slowly, sometimes not at all, and if you search online for a solution, you see that all sorts of podcasters, big and small, have had this problem for years and iTunes isn't terribly responsive.

So this week I've been listening right off the front page, http://www.freetalklive.com/.  You can download or stream off of there using their quick link to the last show, on PC or iPhone.  

I'm also going to experiment with a different podcast client like RSS Radio since iTunes is so unreliable.

[joestros]

Thanks for the information.  Yeah, I just resorted to downloading on the PC.  Hopefully they will resolve the issue soon.

Please don't think I am complaining.  I realize the show is free to download so I am just grateful for it being available at all. 

[Demon440]

yeah thanks for the info! I've been downloading off the site too, it just kills the battery.

[FTL_Ian]

Give RSS Radio a try - I like it.

I had the same problem for the last week. Now there are no podcasts available. I know there are other podcast feeders out there, but being dead on itunes is kind of a big deal. Also, I listen on my ipod, so, while I'm a huge fan of juice, I haven't used it in years. I would imagine the significant majority of your listeners come from Itunes and won't bother to come here and make a message about it. I guess its time for something new anyway. Hope you guys get it worked out. I'll check back in awhile.

Holy shit... I just found the AMP only podcast link.... it works on Itunes and none of the horrible commercials. Jesus, I've been an AMPlifier forever and never realized I can FINALLY get rid of that fucking "ON YOUR FEET!" Wohoo!
