That's the extension I'm using... and I don't plan on downloading gigs of the stuff.  Just a couple a day that I could pop into on a fairly regular basis.  Not enough that would ever tweak a bandwidth meter.

Woo, I'm digging the RSS stuff.  Set up one for ESPN NFL, a few news sites, just snagged RetroBlast's... cool.

Thanks for the help, SirPoonga.  Much appreciated.

Yeah, but the beauty of this (supposed) solution is that each song is (apparantly) also a separate song.  Or, if not a separate song (I'm not sure since I've never done it and haven't found anyone else who has besides the original post I read) the podcast 'setup' allows you to skip ahead song-by-song while the one-long-mp3 idea does not.
I don't know if that would work, there isn't chaptering in podcasts.

I've finally found a reference (I can't remember if it's THE reference) to what I'm talking about.  In this thread, the suggestion is to "Rip it from CD as one long track, then format it as a podcast with chapter points."  the following posts in the thread seem to think that this is an ingenious idea.

This doesn't solve all the issues (because you're still stuck with one long-ass track) but if the chapter points work, then at least you'd be able to skip around to the next songs contained in the track.

My question is: Can anybody tell me how to format an mp3 as a podcast with chapter points and get it into my iPod?

That's what I am saying.  I don't think mp3s have chaptering.

Okay, maybe not mp3, but AAC then.  Podcasts must have the ability to have chapters because there's an "Apple Chapter Tool" specifically for this purpose.  I guess I'll keep Googling and try to figure this all out.

Quick nod:

Retroblast's RSS feed is sweet.

I could see that.  THe audiobook format does have chapters I believe.  .m4b files (actually .m4a file renamed so the ipod knows it is an audiobook).
