Podcast Tuner

There's a new kid in town. A podcasting tool that does everything you wish the others did...

• Subscribe to podcasts with a single click
• Tell you at a glance what shows have new content available
• Listen to podcats without launching another app
• Display OPML show notes without launching a browser
• Send only content you designate to iTunes
• Send individual episodes to iTunes with a single click

Why is it better than...

• iPodder
  • iPodder is written in Python. Which is great for cross-platform functionality, but it's an interpreted language, so it's slow.
    Podcast Tuner is pure Cocoa and built from the ground up to run fast under OS X.
  • The iPodder GUI is lacking. This is partly due to it being written in Python and therefore not having access to a lot of the cool OS X widgets that Podcast tuner can tap into.
  • Have you used iPodder under OS X? I've never been able to run it without crashing.
• iPodderX
  • The iPodderX GUI is not pretty.
  • iTunes integration is all or none. You can't send some content to iTunes. With Podcast Tuner, you can pick and choose which shows end up in iTunes. You can also send individual episodes to iTunes manually with a single click.
• PoddumFeeder
  • PoddumFeeder is written in AppleScript. A very cool tool, but limited in its abilities because of the language choice.
  • AppleScript is slow.
