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.

Well I've searched on the google rss and podcast search and found a
couple
of podcasts to download. So I selected them. I didn't immediately find
them
on the podcast downloder. They showed up the following day. Anyway I hit
download, hoping they would download, but the log file states.
11/6/2007 10:50:29 PM - Podcast: The Ottawa Local Podcast - not
subscribed,
so not downloading.
Hmmm. What have I done wrong?
