  I have used Feedburner to transform a WP.com RSS feed with an mp3 enclosure into an iTunes ready podcast feed and, after submitting it to iTMS and also iTunes U, I can say it works great!

  The only addition would be to transform the length, which appear in the WP.com feed into a duration, and including it in the feed.

  Any possibility?

  Current: <enclosure url=”http://abacus.bates.edu/onlinemedia/files/thisweek/audio/lectures/election-students.mp3″ length=”20736000″ type=”audio/mpeg” />

  Requested addition: <itunes:duration>58:50</itunes: duration>

  Nevermind. Seems he’s decided to host his blog elsewhere.
