Hi Thomas,

Looks good! You could also go the extra mile and embed an auto-cleanup
feature (i.e. gPodder will automatically remove played episodes that
are older than 7 days without notifying the user; this feature can be
configured in Preferences).

Don't get me wrong, I'm very thankful that you've spent so much of
your time developing a free kick-ass podcatcher and I'm fine with the
manual cleaner but an auto-cleaner would certainly improve the
user-friendliness even more. :)

Pieter
