On the page of the podcast you want to delete, look to the right-hand corner and you'll see a link to "report a problem." (or some such wording). Explain the problem and hit send. If that doesn't work, check their forums.

I have a similar problem, but its because I was stupid enough to try and put my Podcast on a FREE hosting company that then turned around 6 weeks later and reamed me. Unfortunately I had submitted it to dozens of registries and now I'm completely stuck.

I tried to remove it from iTunes, and it just won't go. So I've abandoned my show and all the listener support I had, and I'm starting again. This time I'm going with www.CyberEars.com because they have a hosting deal that is in partnership with Alesis, the guys who make the mixer that I use. They are great and I'd recommend them to anyone.

Do you still have access to your old feed? Because there's a iTunes redirect tag that automatically migrates subscriptions served by iTunes to your new feed. It's really easy and goes in the header of your XML file.

I would like to point out that this is a good reason to use a service like Feedburner to handle your podcast feed. That way, if everyone subscribes to your Feedburner feed, and then you have some reason to switch servers, you just point Feedburner at your new server's XML file. Your subscribers shouldn't see any interruptions of service in receiving your 'cast.

Excellent point. One I have personally learned myself.

That I didn't know.

My gut reaction was to use that tag (for the first defunct feed) and incorporate the tag that tells iTunes not to display a particular cast and then re-ping them.
