Today I talk about my experience with buzzsprout.com which is a Free Podcasting Media Host that does the following to your podcast:

1. Converts your mp3 file to Japanese. UPDATE: This has been fixed

2. Converts your audio (I believe to 64 kbps) I'm still checking on this.

3. They show you how to submit their RSS to iTunes (which would “Marry” you to them).UPDATE: They will redirect your feed is you decide to leave.

4. They rename your audio file to a bunch of numbers like 49493.mp3

5. They do not offer unlimited storage.

I lump this media host along with podomatic.com, podbean.com as hosts to avoid. Instead, use Libsyn.com or Blubrry.com
