Just to be clear, I don't mean places where you can download mp3's
through a link, I mean something where you can subscribe to a feed and
have the software automatically download new copies as they appear, add
them to a playlist, and optionally delete them after playing. When I'm
driving, I just want to select the playlist and always have the most
recent subscribed and unplayed item at the top - without any
intervention other than the initial subscription.
