I like what I hear of your podcasts but they often fail to download completely in iTunes. Less than the first 10 minutes has been downloaded the last 4 or 5 shows.
I have never experienced a similar problem with any of the other podcasts I subscribe to with iTunes. (For example, Gillmor Gang, Twit, Cranky Geeks, IT Conversations, and others.)
My ISP is Adelphia (soon to be Comcast.) Has anyone else reported a similar problem?

Yeah ive had the exact same problem for the last 2, and this time it says that its only 5 seconds long.
What about just publishing the URL of the RSS feed somewhere on the Talkcrunch front page… ANYwhere.
Hi Mike,
Also me - just won’t download with itunes - shame I ‘d like to hear the podcasts when I am in the car….
Cheers Simon
[...] What I like a lot about the way Michael Arrington is interviewing people is that he is walking the thin line of getting as many details as possible to driving them nuts by drilling for information as deep as possible. I had already a couple of grins on my mouth about his techniques and courage to do it. Great! Also the podcast with the Pageflakes founder Christoph Janz one episode later on TalkCrunch was driven very strongly by Michael to get the number of users of Pageflakes out of Christoph. Fortunately in the right moment Michael gave up and turned on to other important facts. That is what I mean by walking the thin line. I remember very well how I was crossing a street and turning to go into the park when I started to have a big grin on my face because I was listening to the podcast and I felt that Christoph had to find good arguments to stay strong in this discussion or simply scream at Michael “we don’t disclose those numbers” . Fortunately when I had walked another 2 minutes (or so) and I was aside the nice river Isar Michael said “I think we have beaten this topic to death” and I was releaved that I didn’t have to listen to another round of well argumented questions from him. One can hear that he is a lawyer. Great stuff Michael, keep it up! Beside Venture Voice and FLOSS weekly this is my favourite podcasts. [...]
