Juice

I love this application. It does one job and it does it very simply and very well. It has an excellent directory allowing you to discover new podcasts, some of which you’d probably never think of looking for in the first place (for me, Slacker Astronomy was a terrific “random” find).

You can leave the program running on your task bar and it will regularly download your favourites as and when they become available, or you can catch-up with all your downloads whenever you decide to run the application.

Their web site quotes more than 1,800,000 downloads so far, and I can quite see why. Juice is Donationware. You can also (for a modest fee) buy yourself a “Branded Juice” receiver.

Juice is available for Windows (the version reviewed here), OSX 10.3 or higher and soon for Linux.
