3) Upload the XML file to the same folder as your .m4v files. This file serves as a RSS feed.

3) Verify that it is a valid feed by entering the URL in FeedValidator and also in the URL line of your RSS compatible browser like Safari. "http" will change to "feed" in the URL line indicating it is a RSS feed.

4) Subscribe to the Podcast by choosing "Subscribe to Podcast" in the Advanced menu in iTunes, and type in the path for the XML file created above.
