Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: 1-6 months

Recommend Product: NO

I'm all about open source, but this program just doesn't cut it for me. The concept of a cross platform, one-size-fits-all app sounds good, but I think it's asking too much. The program uses Python to aggregate the RSS feeds but it doesn't work seamlessly. If the user closes the window, Python crashes and iPodder freezes requiring a force quit. The program is slow and gets bogged down if you try to download to many files at once. Also, you can't download just one of the older files in a subscription without deselecting all of the rest of the files separately from all of your subscriptions before you hit the "one-click" download button. If price is your main deciding factor, go with this one, but I would reccommend one of the Shareware apps available which have greater funcionality.
