Hello watermen,

If you receive any "unknown error (8006)" from iTunes while trying to download an audio file (too many redirects), please wait and try it again.

Occasionally our media host experiences cache issues and their servers end up doing a few too many redirects. They are currently working on the issue.

In my case the file did not download in MyFeed or Premium Feed, but after retrying a few times it downloaded ok. Let me know if it does not fix itself after a few more tries spaced over 10 minutes.

I'm having the same issue. I've been trying to download audio files from the Premium Feed for the last 4 hours without any luck (video & PDF files seem to be OK though).

I did manage to download a few audio files last night, though I had to retry many of the files multiple times.

Are there any further updates on this issue?

I have been trying to download audio for the last 3 hours but to no avail.

I don't download from MyFeed or PremiumFeed, I download all my lessons directly from Jpod101 website.

Hi all,
I am new to Japanesepod101 and a newbie at this downloading thing. What is the difference between downloading from MyFeed, PremiumFeed and directly from Jpod101 website? I managed to download once to my ipod but can't do it a couple of days ago. Is there somewhere in the forum that explain the different ways to download?
