podcastbackup 0.1.3

podcastbackup
Back up podcasts with metadata from a feed URL. Progress indicator and resuming.
Hacky, only really tested against FeedBurner/libsyn feeds.
When you run it, you get a directory named after the podcast with a list of mp3 files and metadata.json files.
tree /mnt/backups/podcast/
/mnt/backups/podcast/
├── bestshowever1.mp3.metadata.json
├── bestshowever1.mp3
├── bestshowever2.mp3.metadata.json
├── bestshowever2.mp3
├── bestshowever3.mp3.metadata.json
├── bestshowever3.mp3

The metadata.json files look like:
{
"text": "This is probably the best show yet!",
"href": "http://bestshowever.cachefly.net/bestshowever/bestshowever42.mp3",
"title": "Best Show Ever 42: All The Answers"
}
