Podcasting Software

This is a great bit of software, but having used iPod/iTunes for so long it's clear there's still a lot to be done.
I have a couple of issues- perhaps someone can enlighten me:
The directories are limited- most of the podcasts I search for aren't listed. I understand you can add other directories but a) how do you get the full details of a directory to add it in (have read something about opml but don't understand) and b) which directory would be best for UK use- ideally want as good a listing as iTunes.
Regards

It's a pretty frustating application after you use it for a while.

I use opmlmanager to make my own directory.

The most annoying points:
a)the fonts are huge
b)if you clear out all the episodes in a feed b/c you've listened to them they all come back soon as you restart the software
c) you cant change the name like can edit any bookmark. that is if the podcast name in the feed is 40 characters you cant give it a shorter name..
