DESCRIPTION
iPodder is a media aggregator which automatically downloads podcasts to your computer or portable device based on a RSS feed, leaving you 'one-click-away' from latest media feeds. The whole process is done on it's own, so you don't have to select files, search for them or click links to download the media. All you do is specify some feeds and wait to get yourself the podcasts. All you have to do is decide what your going to listen.

Features:

  • iPodder for the Mac and Windows platform (and soon, Linux)
  • Graphical user interface and tray icon
  • Scheduler inside to setup recursive and timed downloads
  • Progress bar inside
  • BitTorrent support
  • iTunes/Mediaplayer integration
  • Downloads are automatically divided by folders
  • Playlists ordered by Feed
  • Application memorizes the history to prevend double downloads
  • Half downloads will be restarted in new session
  • Automatic placing of content on your iPod (mac only)
  • Standalone application (no extra applications needed)
  • Easy to use

TEE JAY  On my MacBook Pro, the application quits immediately after opening it, without any error message. I'm guessing that this means that Juice 2.2 isn't compatible with Intel Macs (not even via Rosetta). Since the app hasn't been updated since November 2005, that's not too surprising.

The program does, however, launch on my old PowerMac G3. A moderate attempt has been made to make this app look Mac-like, but some of the icons are unfortunately very unintuitive (e.g. a tiny red-and-orange rectangle is supposed to signify a podcast feed) or very Windows-like (yellow folder icons). The podcast directory is extremely limited and apparently not searchable. I didn't try downloading any podcasts with Juice; iTunes already does a great job of that and has a much nicer interface.  (Version 2.2)

ANONYMOUS  An upside down pyramid is more stable than this program. It crashes every 40 seconds. This is not a beta, it's an alpha at best.  (Version 2.2beta1)

DBURNEY  Whoa - the download is only 17mb, but the .dmg file is 100mb and the app is 59 mb? Why is this app so big?  (Version 2.0)

****.

WTMCGEE  the UI needs some work, but it does what I want it to do - downloads the latest feeds, automatically puts them into iTunes, and then I can manage tracks from within iPodder as well, if I so desire.

Hey, it's free - I can't complain!

I seem to have a problem with python still being in use when I try to update, however.  (Version 2.0rc3)
