Does any of these programs look good enough? multimedia/podcatcher --------------------- Armangil's podcatcher is a podcast client for the command line. It provides several download strategies (new shows only, back-catalog allowed, etc), supports BitTorrent, offers cache management, and generates playlists for MP3 player applications. This application accepts one or more feeds (RSS or Atom) or subscription lists (OPML or iTunes PCAST) as argument, in the form of URLs or filenames. Alternatively, it tries to read one such document from the standard input. WWW: http://podcatcher.rubyforge.org/ multimedia/castpodder --------------------- CastPodder is a podcast receiver.
