Monopod 0.6

Monopod project is a simple Podcast client.

Monopod is for people who want to select a few channels, come back later, and find that the Podcast MP3s turn up on the hard disk.

Since falling in love with the little stick of goodness that is the iPod Shuffle, I decided to get into this podcast thing. You know, where MP3s are attached to RSS feeds and downloaded to your computer.

Unfortunately, none of the obvious Linux podcast software really fitted my needs. Either too lo-fi (bashpodder) or just completely scary (iPodder). So I started to write my own.

Monopod is a simple Podcast client.

Its for people who want to select a few channels, come back later, and find the the Podcast MP3s turn up on the hard disk. People like me.

The user interface will get better in the future, but for now its based on an icon in the system notification area. Right-click it, select "Subscriptions", and off you go.

Downloaded files will turn up in the "Monopod" directory in your home directory. Theres a directory per channel, and an M3U file in there with a playlist for each channel.
