Plus you all know the streaming urls and screen sizes of most windows mobile devices. I would use it for sure. Oh right. What I was thinking was that it would be very useful to be presented with all the podcasts in a "latest published" release, and have just a few buttons: - play now - mark to download - an "I love this" button, so you get to see this podcast highlighted when there is a new version available and (press again) to download automatically - an "I hate this" button, this would become a low priority on the first press, and become hidden eventually - an "I've already heard this" button The love/hate facility would simply increment/decrement an internal counter for the podcast feed. I suspect you could also have a prioritization system based upon the channel that originated the programme. Another useful facility would be to see which programmes are downloaded by each user - you could then do a "people who like this also liked" Is there a master index for all the BBC's podcasts?
