I really wish podcasts, radio shows, &c would include archive- or collection-based torrents for those of us who want to mass-download episodes to local for offline on-demand.
RSS is wonderful for upkeep but having to perform a manual click-and-save across hundreds or thousands of episodes is a questionable use of time and it's not always easy to web-scrape the .mp3 files via a script.
Maybe I should just go get a smartphone with a monthly data plan just for podcasts, but I really shouldn't have to.
- Wowfunhappy 7y agoIf all old episodes are actually kept in the RSS feed, there are scripts for this. Here's one: https://gist.github.com/Wowfunhappy/e042b04a34b25bfe25d04b28914196d4 https://gist.github.com/Wowfunhappy/e042b04a34b25bfe25d04b28... You could also run the script automatically every week to download and backup new episodes—no need for a dedicated podcast phone.
