    <link>http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/item/5245/</link>
    <description><![CDATA[Rhythmbox comes with podcast functionality but no podcasts by default.<br /><br />I propose we add some Ubuntu podcasts, or some Linux podcasts. Like LugRadio or something.<br /><br />So people who don't know what a podcast is, can use it as an example, to learn what it is.<br /><br />This would integrate Ubuntu users with the fantastic Ubuntu community, so that they can feel that they're part of it.<br />A strong, healthy, vibrant community.<br /><br />So they can feel the Ubuntu love. The warmth of the embrace of Ubuntu.<br /><br />The podcasts could also educate them about Linux and Ubuntu.<br />

  <description><![CDATA[it's like having RB prepopulated with radio stations and stores... except that this silently incurs an automatic process that both strains the podcast servers and fills the user's disk.<br /><br />there must be a better way besides preconfiguring them to make these podcasts easily accessible to new RB users. i for one would probably not notice this until 4-6 months after installing, and by then i'd already have wasted a lot of bandwidth and space.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[edm1,<br />I do not propose automatic downloads of podcasts or inclusion on installation Cd.<br /><br />cmr,<br />I do not propose automatic downloads. I just propose there is an Ubuntu podcast can click on, and it shows episodes, and he can click on the episode, and it downloads or streams it...]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[No thanks, this would really just be annoying and not useful at all. Keep worthless data off of my disk, I prefer to decide what's in my music collection, as do most others I believe. This is just like how most music players in the windows world include a copy of Beethoven's 9th, or some smooth jazz track. It just gets promptly deleted and wastes everyone's time.]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[It doesn't _have_ to pre-download lots of media, filling the disk, but could just be a link to the rss feeds for some podcasts.<br /><br />]]></description>

  <description><![CDATA[Great idea. NOTE: __DO_NOT__ include Lugradio. I personally love it, but theres too much strong language. Ubuntu has to be family friendly. Otherwise Awesome idea. +1]]></description>
