Is there a good newsreader that also does podcasts?

I'd like to find a news aggregator that will also automatically download podcasts

I'm trying to find a single piece of software that I can use to both keep up with all of the RSS feeds I read on a daily basis, AND automatically download the podcasts I keep up with. Currently I'm using two seperate programs for this, and I'd much rather be able to only have all of this in one place.

Best answer: Try FeedDemon from Newsgator. It comes integrated with FeedStation that automatically handles your media like podcasts, vidcasts, etc.

If you are interested, you can read also my personal experience with FeedDemon.

You don't say if you're using a Mac, but if you are I highly recomend Newsfire.

If you're on a Mac, I'd go with NetNewsWire - nice options available when it comes to podcasts on a per-feed basis, and for my money no other RSS reader for the Mac comes close.

Response by poster: I did forget to specify didn't I. I'm using a PC. I've looked into FeedDemon, but I was hoping I could find something free or Open Source. If there isn't anything free or Open Source though, I will most likely end u with FeedDemon
