benefit of multiple enclosures

[Stunner]

Trying to understand how multiple enclosures will work on the rss feed. Right now I am putting the latest show in the xml file and old shows are archived on the web site. If I put multiple enclosures in the xml, will new subscribers to the feed download all those shows? As I type this out the obvious answer is yes, if that's the case does anyone notice if listeners mind getting slugged with 100mb the first time they subscribe to a feed? I was thinking about doing multiple enclosures, but not sure about the upside. Any thoughts?

Hmmm...I wouldn't do that if I were you. I don't know about other aggregators, but iPodderX gives you the option of downloading all the files, just the most recent or the last three. I think the last three is a good option when first checking out a show, that way you can get a good feel for what the show is about. If you slam the listener with every single show you've done at one time, my guess is that they won't be back.

Yeah, that's pretty much what I was thinking, that's for the quick feedback!
