I've tried it out and it's lots of fun (disappointing that it can't be used on other formats though esp. Audible's .aa format).

It doesn't seem to let you add these bookmarks directly from within iTunes yet (which I think is a great pity). The only podcast I've found which even uses these bookmarks so far is Apple's own iTunes New Music Tuesday podcast (the podcast has to be AAC to use these bookmarks apparently).

I'm wondering if you've found any way to add these chapter marks to podcasts. Apparently there's a beta version of an OSX app to do this, but I'm on PC and have no way to test it. Have you heard anything? Best regards. Hi Kap,
