ID3 settings store information in an audio file, such as the title, artist, album name, track number, and other information you want to include about the file. In Quick Blogcast, you can apply to every podcast the ID3 settings for: Copyright, Podcaster, Album info, Composer, Category, and Default Image.
Default ID3 settings can be automatically associated with each podcast you create. This is convenient if you do not want to re-enter for each podcast the settings that typically do not change, such as copyright, podcaster, and composer.
