iWeb: Some podcasting categories have been discontinued

You can use iWeb to submit your podcast series to the iTunes Store, so that it appears on the Podcast page when people visit the music store online. Visitors to the music store can listen to or download your podcast for free.

In iWeb, you submit your podcast by choosing Submit Podcast to iTunes from the File menu. In the submission window, the Category pop-up menu allows you to select an appropriate choice from a list of categories.

Some publishing categories that appear in the Submit window have been discontinued on the iTunes Store. Discontinued publishing categories include:

Other categories have been renamed slightly and the structure may have changed slightly. Example: A podcast that is submitted as "Arts & Entertainment > Games" will now be automatically categorized under "Games and Hobbies" at the top level.

If you choose a discontinued or renamed category in iWeb, you will have an opportunity to select a different category in iTunes.

This document will be updated as more information becomes available.
