Want to download Italy travel podcasts to MP3 player, NOT Ipod.
Apparently they are protected, and I cannot get them to work on my Coby MP3 player.
HELP !!!

You don't want the podcasts. You just want the mp3 files. You can download them HERE.
They are just standard mp3 files and they work fine on my Treo smartphone. Each ZIP file contains several compressed mp3 files. You'll need to "unzip" them to your hard disk before you can use them.

I have non-iPod MP3 players that had "issues" with the podcasts; the files were all scrambled. If you continue to have problems send me a PM with your e-mail. I've got a trouble shooting guide I can email you.

I can't answer your techonology questions, but I can tell you that we used all five of Rick's podcasts on our recent trip to Rome, Assisi, and Florence. We used one iPod and bought a splitter so we could tour and listen together and it worked out great! We don't like to be stuck on a tour following someone else's agenda, but we also like to learn about the sites we're visiting. It was a joy to have Rick along and a nice break from having to read out of his guide book. He made us wonder in awe of the history and laugh at his funny interpretations. Enjoy!
