Re: IOS podcatchers - was Apple's standalone Podcasts app for iOS is out
Hi, I can see why Apple has branched off their Podcast feature of the iTunes into its own app. It reduces complexity of the ITune app. Sean On 27/06/2012, at 10:53 AM, Chris G wrote: Hi, I have podcaster, iCatcher and Downcast.

Re: IOS podcatchers - was Apple's standalone Podcasts app for iOS is out
I find DownCast easy and intuitive to use, with a good podcast directory and range of features. To me at the price you pay for many ofthe IOS apps it's well worth supporting the developers. I would not like it if Apple were to have too big a monopoly on apps, and I can't really see why they have split podcasts off in this way. --- Dennis Freedman --- The best organic/fairly traded soaps, skincare aromatherapy soy candles in the UK. --- Follow us on Twitter: @e_nat --- Like us on Facebook: www.facebook.com/essentiallynatural On 26 Jun 2012, at 22:15, Geoff Waaler geoff.waa...@gmail.com wrote: IMHO, despite being a paid app, Podcaster is worth Apple's asking price for Podcasts, and not a cent more!!
