I need software that manages podcasts

[Duddy]

Gettin' into the podcasting world. What's the best software for automagically downloading new podcasts or maybe even new mp3 torrents?

sadly, I use iTunes.

Its really nice to hit one button and have it automatically download all the new episodes. iTunes is nice enough to put them in a nicely named folder hierarchy with nice file names. So you don't have to use iTunes to play them back.

I mean for people who don't use iPods.

iTunes does not require an iPod anymore than WMP requires a Zune or Winamp requires an AOL subscription.

Like I said, iTunes puts each podcast into its own nicely labeled directory. Each episode is properly named. Probably just like they would be organized if you were manually downloading them yourself.

Podcast/Name_of_Podcast/Podcats_Episode_1.mp3

This makes it very easy to sort through yourself for playback on a computer or to copy onto some non-ipod mp3 player.
