Extension summary

Found a great podcast, but it only links to iTunes?

That's no good if you use a Chromebook - or if you don't use iTunes to listen to podcasts anyway.

This extension simply redirects to a page with an audio player and links to subscribe in other podcast apps.

User reviews

Just what I wanted! I have a Chromebook and links to iTunes are useless for me. Now I can listen, and even subscribe using other podcast apps. The developer of this extension is clearly a god amongst men, and I wish I was like him.
