iPodder syncs mp3's to my iPod for me automatically
2004.08.15 . .
Adam Curry finally released his AppleScript named iPodder today. I immediately grabbed it, made a few configuration tweaks and then my computer successfully, with one click, scanned some RSS feeds known to contain MP3 enclosures, downloaded the MP3's and then added them to iTunes. All I have to do now is sync up my iPod and all the new tracks are ready for listening. Just what the doctor ordered.
There are some refinements to make of course since this is basically a beta. I'm looking forward to seeing where Adam takes this thing.
Now that I've actually run this myself, I immediately thought that I'd like for this to be a Radio Tool. Drop it in my Radio Tools folder, configure some settings on the Tools prefs page, and forget about it. Since Radio's aggregator can already handle enclosures, I'm getting these files in my Enclosures folder anyhow. Why not tap into that which is already handling the subscriptions and the downloads?
