uploading a zillion podcasts onto my mp3 player, on the basis that I'll not listen to them here at home, and can't download them at work, but want to listen to them whilst at work.

which makes sense to me. Lots of choice there, including some new ones. Including the Instant Classic podcast.

:-)

what podcasts might I be missing out on? Which are on your must-listen list?

pkdan, when are you doing another Caffeineland?

*checks*

on the list, but appears to be some weird .m4a file.

.m4a is the default iTunes format, AAC - Stephen uses it because there's a tool you can use on a Mac to make an "enhanced" podcast - which means you can divide a podcast into sort of sections so a different picture and mini title comes up for each bit (hard to properly explain without you looking at one). It's easy enough to convert to MP3 in iTunes (right click on the episode, select convert to MP3) or with other tools.

ah, righto. I didn't put it on my mp3 player as I'm not sure it could cope with the .m4a format, and I was already putting a ton of other stuff on there. The 'convert to mp3' thing sounds familiar, now you mention it.
