I wonder why that is. Are people changing the podcast feed urls, or are the files just disappearing. Hashim, as for the bandwidth issue, I guess it makes more sense for the podcast producer (that is, only if Bloglines caches the file and doesn't download it again for each subscriber). Makes me wonder if there isn't an application out there that is more directly suited for caching podcasts and distributing them - like bittorrent for RSS enclosures. Hmm… I wonder why that is.

Plus timeouts when referencing the initial file. Flip side there are copyright issues to downloading all those MP3s and making them available in a public directory. The trade offs.

This takes away some of the load of serving audio files on your own server. what Bloglines is doing doesn’t seem helpful for users, but it sure is helpful for content creators.
