Also, you can move it wherever you like. If you have a disk-space problem, as I have, you can move it elsewhere, as I did.

> A. Start with the Music or My Music library on the PC or Mac. Inside your Music library, you should see an iTunes folder and inside that, there should be an iTunes Media folder — unless it has been purposely moved. Podcastsare kept in the iTunes Media folder by default. (If you have been using iTunes for years or haven't upgraded to iTunes 9 or a later version, the folder may be called iTunes Music instead of iTunes Media.)

Inside the Podcasts folder are folders labeled with the names of all the audio and video podcasts you have downloaded or subscribed to through iTunes; individual episodes for each podcast are stored within each show's folder.

However, a dedicated backup program and an external drive can automatically keep your podcast archive backed up on a regular schedule — along with all your other personal files on the computer. Both the Windowsand Mac OS X operating systems come with basic backup software, so you just need to supply a compatible external drive.
