Listening to Podcasts

[minniemouse27]

Not sure if this should be under applications or not so I put it here.

I'm planning on picking up my Moto Droid on Friday morning and playing with it this weekend.

There are a number of podcasts that I currently listen to through my computer at work. I listen to them individually from their websites so I'm not using any sort of software to pull them together, etc.

Is there a built in way to set up podcasts already on the new Droid or do I need to enter the world of downloading applications to do this?

I currently use a BlackBerry Pearl and have downloaded a whopping 3 applications on it over the last two years so I'm pretty new to all this!

Thanks!

I don't know of any software that is native to Android for podcasts, but there are several popular podcast apps out there.

Podcasts
Beyond Podcast Manager
Car Cast Podcast Player
Mediafly Audio Podcast Client
MyPOD Podcast Player Free

Minnie, did you find anything? I've tried a few like Google Listen, dPod etc but haven't been able to find one that allows me to subscribe to a podcast that requires a login. Dog Cathcer allows this feature but I prefer to try an app before paying for it to make sure its what I want...

Anyone else have suggestions?

Google Listen does podcasting, and is available for free on the Marketplace.
