There are still plenty of iPhone webapps that are just as good as any native app. An example is ESPN’s Podcenter. The Podcenter is simply an iPhone-friendly site that lets you listen to all of ESPN’s podcasts. Select any episode, and the mp3 will begin playing in the iPhone’s browser. It even works fine over EDGE if you give it a minute to cache.
Sure, you can subscribe to all of these podcasts in iTunes. But if you’re like me, sometimes you just end up with a bunch of podcasts building up in your library that you rarely listen to. Sometimes, you just want to hear what Mike & Mike are saying about recent news like the Brett Favre trade.
The only downside is that the podcasts are usually a day old, so you’re listening to yesterday’s news. But with a show as entertaining as Pardon the Interruption, it doesn’t matter much.
