Include iTunes ID with database export #1

Would it be possible to share the iTunes ID with the database export? If people are concerned about cloned feeds / malicious content, then they could use the iTunes ID to verify a feed is already hosted by Apple, and if it is hosted by Apple, then there is some reassurance that the feed is safe. If the iTunes ID is available in a separate CSV that can be cross-referenced with the newsfeeds CSV that would be fine.

I know longer-term the goal is to break away from Apple dependency completely, but I think in the short-term the Apple ID would be useful for developers switching from Apple to Podcast Index.

Yes it will be in there if we have it. That column should be in the sample export.

Oh my bad, I was thinking the readme contained a full list of fields, but I see the itunes_id in the CSV now. Thanks!
