Apple sells 100 millionth iPod!

Learning my way around

Today, I spent the live long day learning more about podcasts. I am subscribing mainly to business podcasts on iTunes...with an emphasis on internet marketing. I have learned how to subscribe to various podcasts but a problem I have is that I can't figure out how to delete old podcasts from my iPod...even after I have deleted the podcast from my computer. Tomorrow, I will ask Garrett, my tech-savvy son, how to do that.
