Maybe I'm misunderstanding the point of podcast apps, but the ones I've used seem to lack basic functionality which I would expect. I've currently got both DoggCatcher and Google Listen on my HTC Desire. All I want them to do is to download some BBC radio subscriptions so that the audio files are stored on my SD card whenever I want to listen to them.
However, despite tweaking various settings (in particular in Doggcatcher I've got auto downloads set at 500 and I've allowed it to auto dowload over wifi) when I started the app up it has never downloaded the stuff, and it then spends ten minutes doing so, assuming that I even have a signal.
This seems to defeat the point - I could just stream the stuff when I want to hear it, and not bother with a pod catcher at all. So what am I doing wrong?
