Blah, been out over a month for windows, Actualy didnt care much for it though it seemed to work better than Itunes, for the 3 Hours I used that. the beta seemed to eat alot of ram, and I mean a lot. maybe they fixed it. Also $20something Bleh. Most people that use these programs cant afford that. make a free stripped down version or just free in general. make profit elsewhere. :P
I wish these podcasting clients would load the podcasts into the podcast section of my iPod. I like to have all the podcast in one place with the ability to resume them. I know iPodderX can convert them but I like that iTunes does it automatically but I don't like having to add all my podcasts into iTunes. I guess I'm getting too picky.
I have a high tolerance for people saying whatever they want on a blog. But, I'm wondering if anyone here would like to have some intelligent conversation about iPodderX. After trying ipodder and iTunes I decided to give iPodderX's free trial a go, even though I am reluctant to pay for software these days, trying to go open source or freeware whenever possible. But, I don't mind paying a modest price for something that just works when the alternatives don't meet my needs. That's what led me to IpodderX - iTunes' handling of podcasts is OK, but the options are simply limited.Initially, iPodderX frustrated me to be honest. But I just didn't get the interface. The more I came back and played with it, the more I "got" it. And now I really like the interface! It makes since how things are laid out. So far it's definitely the best app I've tried for downloading podcasts, at least for my needs.I have two questions I need to answer though, before I shell out the money. One, it's clearly better than iTunes, _but_ what about _other_ competing programs? Like this one that was just on CommandN :<a class="user" href="http://www.trinfinitysoftware.com/seagull.shtml">http://www.trinfinitysoftware.com/seagull.shtml</a>Currently, the site is down BTW, likely because of being on CommandN! :)This one, Seagull3, is OSX only, but what if a windows version comes out? Which one am I really gonna want?Two, I was all for giving it a go at 12.47 during the Beta. And while I don't think 24.95 is too much at all, now the price has essentially doubled for me. Is it still worth it? I just don't want to shell that out and then something better comes out next month. Next year, no big deal. But next month would hurt!
