PlayPod is a Cocoa-based podcast client that enables users to browse, listen, and download podcasts. It serves as an audio platform analogous to blogs.
One of the best things about PlayPod is that it allows you to download audio files and automatically move them to iTunes. You can also set genres and playlists, and even convert downloaded files to AAC bookmarkable files. These features make it super easy to organize your audio content and listen to it on your favorite devices.
Other key features include scheduled downloads, feed groups, backup and restore functionality to .Mac, and an integrated directory. The software also includes iTunes integration, which means that you can easily transfer your downloaded audio files to your iTunes library.
In terms of limitations, there is a 10-day full-featured trial of the software available. After this trial period, you may encounter some nag screens and the software may quit after 5 minutes. However, the software is still fully functional during this time and can be a great way to discover new podcasts and audio content.
Overall, the latest release of PlayPod includes some great new features, including greatly improved directory functionality. If you're looking for a sleek and functional RSS-podcast client, PlayPod is definitely worth checking out.
