Podcasts on Android?

[Grant Barrett]

I've been through a variety of sites, videos, articles, and forums looking for an answer to this question: does Android now, or will it, have the ability to subscribe to and to play podcasts? I assume a third-party app will do this, but if so, I wonder if one has already been built and, if not, if someone is in the process of building one. If I could never have to carry a phone and iPod again...

Android will most defiantly have the ability to have podcasts. It is going to be through 3rd party application however.

There are already many projects being written for Linux that are podcast receivers, just take a look:

I'm sure something will be able to be ported to do just what you're asking. whether or not apple will be able to take legal action is another thing. I'm not exactly sure how the laws work. anyone know?
