I have been researching Podcast helper software as I am in the early stages of starting a vodcast (video podcasting). I would bet that many of you are also getting into podcasting, here are some of the options to consider:

Feeder (29.95) – RSS feed stuff, publish. One of the mainstays.
Cast Easy ($19.95) - enhanced podcasts, RSS feed stuff, publish. Also includes file convertor. One of the better interfaces.
Podcast Maker - enhanced podcasts, RSS feed stuff, publish. Check out the podcasters that use their software & their quicktime tutorial
Podcast RSS Buddy ($19) – RSS feed stuff. Simple way to produce iTunes compliant RSS feeds. Nice flash tutorial.
Podcaster ($29.95) - enhanced podcasts, RSS feed stuff, publish.
Podcast monkey ($19.95) – RSS feed stuff, publish,
Vodcaster (Free) – RSS feed stuff
Podcast AV (free for right now) – Enchanced podcasts
ChapterToolMe (free) – Chapter tool
AudioBinder (free) – Chapter tool

Update: I also would like to add Garageband (part of iLife '06) to this list. Which slipped my mind because it was so obvious. Thanks to those who suggested that. Also add Feedforall to this list.

1. I've just gotten my own podcast up and I'll be eager to hear how you fare.

I'm on a PC and I've opted for Broadcast Machine:

2. I have been looking for some more applications to publish my podcasts. I have been using feedforall for about 30 days and did not want to purchase it because adding a podcast is very tedious.

Thank you so much for publishing this! Definitely helped me!

3. Are you excluding GarageBand 3 because you assume everyone knows about it? Great list otherwise.
