Please submit a bug report explaining the issue. There has already been a bugfix release for an issue similar to that, so I'd need to test it to find out why it doesn't deal with it now.

It's a very good command line tool, however I found some problems when using it. I tried the podcast from Wall Street Journal and the program did not work as expected. While dealing with rss feed not including new lines, the program does not seem to handle the parsing appropriately. I have made some changes to use XML::XPath in parsing the podcast rss feed. It seems more appropriate to parse XML using perl XML libraries. I wanted to know if you would wish me to submit the changes. Regards Vivek Srivastav Eskild,
