Comment(by Denis-de-Bernardy):

 Replying to [comment:17 DD32]:
 pretty good from what i've seen, However, taking a cautious road could
 prevent issues in the future.. even if only just for 1 person...

 So, user input time. My customers (many podcasters) would hate it if the
 following podcast titles get rejected:

  - Isn't this neat?
  - Something on "blah"!
  - Why 1 < 2 and 2 > 1
  - Email mickey @ mouse.com
  - Make $$$ because stocks will rise 10%

 As long as we get those right, we've a few thousand podcasters who can
 vouch things work great.

 I've never seen * used in a title, and I suspect it's due to the fact that
 Windows will reject it. I assume other windows special characters apply
 here too (\ in particular). I *have* seen all sorts of weird punctuation
 characters though.

 Just my $.02. :-)
