New iTunes Podcasting Features?

101420-96247-thumbnail.jpgRecent analyst comments are speculating that Apple is using iMixes technology to implement the Podcast feature in the next version of iTunes. With this feature iTunes users would be able to set up a “playlist” of regularly listened to podcast and have a system of voting on it just like music. An example would be “Technology News Daily” that would consist of several podcasts.

A user would be able to subscribe to the Podcast iMix to receive all the feeds in that person’s podcast playlist. Ultimately increasing the number of podcast subscriptions through iTunes.

The name of this feature remains to be unknown but several rumors suggest “iCasts” or “iFeeds.” Apple’s iTunes has sold 850 million songs since it opened in 2003.
