Don't think so, haven't tried yet though. I agree with you, don't like any of the podcast clients. Wish there was an easy one that would basically manage everything, like automatically scanning the podcasts I'm subscribed to, alerting me when a new ones are available, then asking me which shows I'd like to download. It's not great with Juice when you just want to download one radio show of each, or managing the podcasts properly. I've heard of a podcast manager which you can buy, can't remember its name, but it apparently even downloads the programs and transfers them automatically to your player, isn't that bril! What also irritates me is that providers like Radio Netherlands automatically assume you use Itunes, or that you want to use it, you can't sub to there podcasts because they don't give you the feed link.

That's interesting. Does IE7 RSS feed reader support podcasts in any way? I really dislike all the podcatcher programs I've ever used. They're not nearly as logical as I'd like them to be and don't really do what I want them to do when I want them to do it.

Could you use the RSS that comes with Internet Explorer?

Catherine, I just tried the Google feed you mention in Accessible RSS and cannot get it to work. Strange though, because I seem to remember that it usually complains that it cannot use the feed when you try to add it. In this case it accepted it, but no "headlines" appear when I select the new feed. 

Juice is designed to facilitate the download of MP3s carried by the RSS
feed - it would not be suitable for reading other RSS feeds.

Sharp Reader and Feed Reader are other free RSS aggregators although I
have no experience of either.

Hi,

I'm currently using Accessible RSS which I love for its interface and
speed/simplicity, but I'm finding quite a few feeds it doesn't recognise. I think this might be because it doesn't support atom but only RSS. (I want 
to subscribe to the google blog, for example, and the URL of that is
googleblog.blogspot.com/atom.xml and when I pasted that into Accessible RSS 
it said was invalid).
So I'm thinking I'd like to try something else. I know people get on well with Juice as a pod catcher - but do/can you use it for news items too? I guess you can, since it's RSS that's behind both of them, but nobody seems to mention news feeds when they mention Juice. Do any of you use Juice for 
this?

If not, has anyone got any other suggestions?

Catherine
