Why do my iTunes podcast subscriptions keep disappearing?

For several months now, I keep having this problem: My iTunes podcast subscriptions keep disappearing! It's happened half-a-dozen times now. I'll load iTunes, and several of my podcast subscriptions are just GONE. Sometimes individual podcasts disappear, but other times, the whole subscription itself has vanished.

I'm tired of having to keep going back to the iTunes store to re-subscribe to the same podcasts again and again and again. What's going on here?

iMac Intel, Mac OS X (10.4.11)

incredible, and extremely irritating

IT JUST HAPPENED AGAIN!

I was subscribed to 3 podcasts: Democracy Now!, Bill Moyer's Journal, and Real Time with Bill Maher.

This morning, I went to listen to podcasts, and there's only one subscription showing: Bill Maher -- and it contains an episode of Democracy Now!

What the heck is going on here?

So after the subscriptions disappeared yesterday, I resubscribed to Democracy Now! and Bill Moyers Journal.

This morning, I went to check iTunes... and two of the subscriptions were gone -- AGAIN! And the episode of Democracy Now! that remained behind was now listed under real Tim with Bill Maher.

I'm getting so frustrated with this... why am I having to re-subscribe to podcasts every day now?
