Those needing a larger podcast database should by all means find themselves satisfied with iTunes' more mature collection. Just don't come back wondering what that funky odor coming from your keyboard is. <br /><br />Check ZuneBoards for an excellent and picture-filled step-by-step.

I already use the itunes podcast database for podcasts on my zune30. Haven't had a problem yet. I'm not such an audiophile that I get all in to the variables in sound quality.

I listen to mostly sermons from podcasts and they sound just fine. But it's a great tip for those not in the know.:)
