Summary0005986: Podcast importing and exporting isn't intuitive
DescriptionI was just testing MM and iTunes a little and was thinking about the process of importing subcribed podcasts from iTunes to MM, it can be done quite easily, but I think that the process isn't intuitive enough.

1. In iTunes right-click 'Podcasts' node and select 'Export...'
2. Select Save as: [Podcast Subscription files (*.opml)]
3. Save the file
4. Open MM and...

at this point we could do it more intuitive:
a) The 'Add Directory (OPML)' menu item should be added also to the 'Podcast Subscriptions' right-click menu and 'Podcasts' toolbar menu

b) We should maybe add a "Subscribe all" or rather "Subscribe selected" function
, this way user could subscribe more feeds at once from a single podcast directory. This multi-subscription action would use the subscription data from 'Global podcast options' and user could edit each subscription individually later.

c) We should maybe also add the 'Export Subscribed Podcasts...' menu item to the 'Podcast Subscriptions' right-click menu. Because now it is under menu Tools->Scripts->'Export Subscribed Podcasts...' and it is not a very intuitive location.

d) We could add a KB article "How to import/export subscribed podcasts"
