it's called captcha, and no, it's not related to this issue.

as Phillipe posted, the reasons seems to be this:
http://support.google.com/youtube/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=56100

because these 403 are annoying me to no end i looked at the issue. there's a
tool named youtube-dl which still works. comparing gpodder and youtube-dl
revealed that youtube-dl extracts the urls using a different method and these
urls have a parameter 'signature' in it.

luckily youtube-dl is written in python too, so i transplanted the extractor
from youtube-dl (class YoutubeIE) into gpodder and voila, gpodder downloads
again. because i'm more a python novice, the resulting code is a mess and not
meant for production :)
