Hi Alasdair,
I don't see any check boxes, except the one that states. Search podcasts
only.

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.

Best wishes,
