Dear list: I have a website and blog with audio programs. Immediately below is a direct link to one of the audio files: http://home.earthlink.net/~chuckayers/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/goodnight.mp3 I have entered this link into feed burner and I get an error message. Is there a limit on bit rate or how many minutes a program can be when using Feed Burner? If you were to click on the above link, you would go directly to the audio on my blog. My question is how do I acquire the designation of RSS or XML on this direct link. How do ipodders find this audio for download? I think everything else is in order. My Program is converted to MP3 and is installed on my website. Now what do I do to get this thing to work. Frustrated in Tulsa. Chuck Ayers Tulsa, Ok.
