Lame. Why didn't M$ upload it in a format that we wouldn't have to convert/transcode?

Not sure, but I was aware of this from the reviews I've read. They said 6 podcasts took about 30 minutes depending on the speed of the PC.

I just subscribed to the NPR podcasts for "Car Talk" and "The News from Lake Woebegon" and they worked fine. All episodes downloaded in minutes - BUT -

How do you get the URL of a podcast after you have added it?  I tried to find a way to copy/paste them here in this message, but found nothng in software that would let me view or edit the URL after I initially added it as a podcast.

Not sure, maybe you can head to the sites and look up the RSS feed URL?

I'm pretty sure I could google them again - I just thought it was weird that they made it hard to share a podcast link with someone else.
