CNET Editors' review
This well-crafted podcast catcher makes an ideal choice for both users of NewsGator's RSS feed readers, which have FeedStation integrated, and those users who only want their tunes. Arranging the podcasts in an RSS-style tree ensures consistency between the programs, but automatic uploads to your music jukebox means that you'll spend a minimal amount of time managing FeedStation and maximize your listening.
The interface is good, with easy synchronization to its RSS counterparts and their Webware component. The interface allows you to search podcast titles, arrange them by date, put a hold on downloading them--excellent if you're going on vacation--and more. There's a support forum where you can post questions and get answers from other users, and NewsGator has a free Webware client so you can check your podcasts wherever you are. We strongly recommend using FeedStation to soothe your hunger.

"Need an "account" to use as a podcatcher"
Version: FeedStation 2.7
Pros
None that I know since I can't it get it to work.
Cons
In order to use it as a podcatcher you need to have a NewsGator account. There's a link on the "Welcome" screen that takes you to "NewsGator, but once there i could not find any links or buttons to create an account.
Summary
All I want is a simple podcatcher so that I don't have to use iTunes, Everything I've tried requires that I sign up for some additional service or, like Zune, won't work in Canada!
