Podcast.net
- You could search by category or title. Titles weren't really in alphabetical order because of symbols, numbers and articles which kind of drove me crazy.
- Could not locate popcasts that I listen to such as "This American Life" and "Pop Candy"
- Too many Google Ads
- Needed to download software. While they offered suggestions of which software to download, they didn't give instructions.
- Site lacked any information about podcasts and the site.
Podcast Alley
- Lots of information about popcasting and popcasts.
- easy to search categories.
- Ranked popcasts.
- Need to download software, but there were clear directions.
- I easily found the popcasts, I already listen to.
While Podcast Alley was my favorite of the two, I will probably continue to use Apple's itunes. It is easy to browse and works well with my ipod. Before itunes had podcasts, I also used a program called ipodder. Some of the podcasts I once listen to are now by fee-based subscription only. Podcasts, are a great way to catch up with NPR programming.
