No they're not. Does the average person know what you're even talking about here? Because I don't know and a service that's unknown is not discoverable.

I think there's a difference between discoverable content on a service and the service itself being discoverable. Podcasts (video or audio) are relatively easy to find once you're actually into that. But I very rarely hear anyone mentioning video podcasts at all.

I'm on the consumer end of this. Basically every Youtube channel I'm subscribed to is effectively a video podcast, with new "episodes" every so often, from a few times a week to once a month.

I would love not to have to look to Youtube to find new feeds to subscribe to (in some cases literally subscribe, Youtube has RSS!). However, I don't have the slightest idea where I would begin looking for video podcasts. Maybe an RSS aggregator? But not everyone uses RSS... Any suggestions?
