Thanks! It's moving along reasonably well, still some kinks

(1) http://www.skookummobile.com/ - skookum subscriber is a (free in beta) podcast downloader - supposed to do unattended downloads, TBD if it actually works.

(2) podcastready works fine, but renames your podcast files (for some reason!)

(3) I actually have a couple 'feed' sources - general podcasts that are downloaded nightly, and NPR radio I record off the streaming webcasts. It turns out it makes sense to (and is easy to) generate different 'rebroadcast' local podcasts by 'theme' - basically I can grab some NPR, or grab my poker podcats, etc... you can go as crazy as you want here.

(4) MortScript is going to possibly figure in here somewere. Probably have a podcast cleanup script to delete old podcasts...

Ideal script (hey I can dream)
- run at 3:30am
- if !on AC, end
- otherwise:
- turn on wifi
- run podcast app, auto download
- when done turn off wifi
- go back to sleep

No idea if that is possible in mortscript. Will let you know.
