下载方法： 1， 有iTunes的可直接搜索下载，没有的下一个安装上就行。建议大家注册美国账号，不知道中国的有没有这个，而且美国账号资料更丰富。注册方法google之。

2， 直接去他们的网站下载。http://www.justvocabulary.com/podcast/ 有原文，更清楚。记录或打印下来方便查阅。但是下载的时候要一个个点，不如iTunes方便。

上传一个，大家先下了自己听听感觉一下。

我好久没下了 因为JV貌似到了559 （2009-11-20）就再也没更新过。。

刚刚随便挑个Discovery下载，没显示错误。
但是随便一个JV删了，重新下载，没反应。。看来是JV在ITUNES上的链接出了问题

囧。。。难不成编辑部停播后把连接也给撤了。。
