Hi Neil and Severin,
iTunes places only podcasts you've subscribed to into Podcasts
playlist as Neil has said.
Typecast might do what you want Neil.
"Typecast lets you copy regular audio files from your Mac or the
internet into the iTunes Podcast playlist.
Using a simple drag-and-drop interface, you specify the source
tracks (episodes), and give your "pseudo-podcast" a name and
description. When you click "Send to iTunes," your customized
Podcast shows up instantaneously.
If you've ever wished you could get iTunes to treat a normal mp3
file just like all the other Podcasts in your subscription list,
Typecast might be just what you're looking for."

Hi Sev,
It seems to me that if you download the mp3 file - ie the download
audio
link (for Radio National) then iTunes handles it like a music file
(with a
genre of podcast) - however if you subscribe to the podcast then
iTunes puts
them in the Podcasts library.
I'm also finding this frustrating - I have some "By Design"
podcasts which I
downloaded using my old iMac (OSX 10.2 & iTunes3) but have since
subscribed
to the "By Design" podcast using my new iMac (OSX 10.4.9 & iTunes
7.1.1) -
the new podcasts are in the Podcasts library but the old podcasts,
which I
have added to my library (and which are no longer available as a
podcast
download) are in the Music library.
I want all the "By Design" podcasts in the same spot on the
browser - I
don't even care that much if it is under podcasts or music (though
podcasts
WOULD be more logical) - however after trying several approaches
eg moving
the actual files (using finder) both into and out of the podcasts
folder,
adding podcast files using the "add to library command" for files
physically
located in both in and out of the podcasts folder, still iTunes
stubbornly
displays them as either podcasts or music in the browser.
So... If anyone knows a workaround, I also would be very happy!
Cheers
Neil

iTunes refuses to put downloaded MP3 podcasts into the Podcasts

7.1.1 and I am sure this was not the case with earlier versions.
Any comments?
