As I understand it, the miro RSS feed contains torrent:// links where the average RSS feed contains http://. So each client is getting notified of new episodes via rss, and then pulling those episodes via torrent. Makes it hard to use any client other than miro with the content, unfortunately. I've cc'd Chris Lahey, who I hope can clarify/correct me (he's with Miro, ex-Ximian, still rocking. And apparently curling?)
