At 332 (as of this date - podcasts), that's a LOT of clicking. It's nice to have an OPML of ALL podcasts alphabetical (or an incomplete listing organized by folders), but, it would be nice to have an OPML consistent with the method currently used on the NPR website. Or better yet - a CHOICE to have an OPML alphabetical, or sorted by category, or by Station Call Letters. People could then pick their preferred method. How about an OPML organized (i.e. in folders)

We do provide an OPML of all the podcasts currently in the NPR Podcast Directory, which includes NPR-produced content, alt.NPR podcast-only content, content from the great partners in NPR's Podcasting Effort, and a few hundred other podcasts from NPR member stations. It lives here: http://www.npr.org/podcasts.opml As we improve the OPML, it will still live there. Note, the above OPML includes some of our newer podcasts that are missing from the OPML's listed in previous posts. As Kosso mentions, we’ve been working to get exactly that: a good OPML.

There needs to be some better way to pull down NPR shows than ferreting through iTunes. They should make an OPML index the theme of a pledge drive. I'd bet there are thousands of listeners who haven't tuned in to NPR on a radio dial in months. It doesn't mean they're not listening. I’ll second that!

I've been talking to NPR about this a couple of weeks agi, as it happens. I have an OPML file of all the NPR podcasts - I am just waiting for someone to go through them and 'organise' them all into folders etc. Then we will be importing the OPML for them all to appear at npr.podcast.com :)) Hi Chris.
