iTunes BT plugin?

November 5, 2005 3:05 PM

Does a 3rd party plugin exist that will allow me to download bittorrents of podcasts using iTunes 6?

Running Mac OS X 10.4.3, iTunes 6.0.1.

I know about other aggregators that allow BT downloads, but I'm curious as to whether someone has created a way for iTunes to do this.

I don't belive so. Unfortunately.

mds35...I don't understand why? do you mean to pull down podcasts via BT to alleviate pounding on provider's servers?

Exactly, filmgeek. Some of the podcasters I listen to even ask their listeners to do so.

I imagine some sort of AppleScript could be used to call your favorite application to download the file and then add it to your iTunes library.

Hmm...I have never written an Apple Script before. I just may give it a try. Thanks Monochrome.
