Question: Can I use both Feedburner and Blubrry to provide podcast statistics?
Answer. YES

You may use Blubrry Statistics with Feedburner without any problems. With Blubrry statistics, you use your issued redirect in all of your media URLs found on both your blog web site and in your original feed. Your original feed will then be processed by Feedburner, where they add their redirect for counting downloads. Keep in mind that Feedburner only counts feed downloads whereas Blubrry Statistics will count downloads from both your feed and on your blog web site.

Can I use FeedBlitz to email subscribers my Podcasts?
Answer: NOT RECOMMENDED

We currently do not recommend you use FeedBlitz for your podcast. FeedBlitz adds a redirect to your media that is not supported by Microsoft based applications such as Internet Explorer, Zune Marketplace or Windows Media Player. Subscribers using Microsoft applications listed above will receive errors when attemptinng to listen/view your podcast episodes. This is a problem whether or not you use the Blubrry Statistics.
