- Two years ago your No Agenda Show podcast prepared for predictable change by creating our podcast rss feed under a domain name that we have complete control over.
- The new feed has been actively advertised on all shownotes and download pages
- The new feed was submitted to iTunes, who promptly changed it from the old mevio.com feed
- In addition, we implemented a 301 re-direct on the old mevio.com feed
- A 301 redirect is an internet standard that tells the requesting party (usually a podcatcher) that the old URL is no longer the default and that the new URL needs to be used instead.
- Unfortunately not all podcast software adheres to the standard in the podcast directories that they offer as part of their 'service'.
- This has resulted in a number of services that can no longer download No Agenda from its podcast feed
- Since the 'cloud-like' services did not become automatically aware of the change, we need the No Agenda Producers to notify any service or developer of podcast software of the change to our feed, and request that they update this in their database, directory or central subscription service.
- Your assistance is highly appreciated as the centralized service approach has broken the connection for some people who may not be aware of the underlying problem.
- We also want to bring your attention to an alternative form of distribution that many people enjoy using instead of the traditional feed method, by installing BitTorrent Sync on their computer or smartphones. This allows the most recent episode to be automatically downloaded to a folder of your choosing on any device as soon as it is available on the peer to peer network. Its super fast and always available before the podcast feed is updated.
- Thank You For Your Courage and ITM
