Personally I would go for all podcasts unchecked by default but with an 
option to check all if required.  what does anyone else think?

Cheers

Peter kindly demonstrates the problem with the Downloader. People
expect the download button to download either the selected podcast or
all the podcasts in the list. They don't expect to have to check the
checkbox next to each podcast they want to download. Worse, some
people check a podcast, download it, then uncheck it, and find the
program has deleted the podcast contents (since they are no longer
subscribed to it.)

Need to rethink the interface. Might just make every podcast checked.
But potentially gigabytes of downloading then.
