One of the nice things about XML is that it is eXtensible. So, for

example, Apple defined some special "itunes" tags in addition to the

basic RSS ones, which suit their purposes.

It might make sense for you to use standard podcast RSS, but with the

metadata embedded e.g. as RDFa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RDFa . The

CC website http://creativecommons.org/license , for example, generates

a HTML fragment for you with such metadata embedded - you could put

that into the feed items, no problem. I don't know which software

could make use of that information...
