iTunes and Other Podcasting stuff

The Money Blogger Podcast is now available on iTunes. There's a long story about why it wasn't on iTunes before. But I won't bore you with that. I do want to know, however, how many of you subscribe to this podcast with a podcatcher like iTunes or Juice, and how many just listen by clicking on the audio links on this blog site.

I've also had a couple of listeners point out some of the other features that could be added to my podcasts, like chapter markers, images, etc. I'd like your thoughts on these features. I'm way overdue for coming up with a logo. But what other features do you think would be good?
