"better hold off upgrade if on 2.x version"
Version: gPodder 3.1
Pros
Very easy subscribing. works very well and has some nice config options. can reside in system tray. has Windows and Linux versions. has the gpodder.net site where your subscriptions can be stored and downloaded to another gpodder if you move to a different pc.
Cons
this was my favorite podcast client of all time. they did remove the mp3 player sync option for reasons I can't figure out(it worked very well for a Sansa player rockboxed in Linux). As my distribution went to the 3.x version(and I did not realize this reduced functionality when I upgraded the distro) I am out of luck, and rather than spend a load of time copying files back and forth, I have had to use an old Windows version under Wine(2.18 I think) and the sync is back. Ugly, but it works.
Summary
If you listen to lots of podcasts,I would look right now for an older version, unless you don't mind cutting and pasting files.
better yet....download 2.18 tar.gz from sourceforge, extract, and "make install" and put in the urpmi skip.list file if necessary and voila.

"Easy to use"
Version: gPodder 2.15
Pros
Very simple to add new feeds, easy to manage, good for beginners,nice, simple design
Cons
Didn't install directly into my "program files" folder, a bit slow to load up
Summary
This program seems to work well although it is a bit sluggish to boot up. I am running it on a netbook rather than a full laptop, so that might account for that minor slowness. I'm only keeping up with a few podcasts.
The program has a nice, clean and simple design. It has a similar format to the Snarfar RSS reader that I'm also testing right now. I found it easy to add and delete feeds in gpodder. It automatically worked with the Windows Media Player on my machine. I believe it selects your default player, so you could probably use it with another media player.
What bugged me about this program initially was that when I installed it, it installed itself directly into my "downloads" folder. Most programs automatically select the "program files" folder for installation. Because I didn't realize where it was initially installing, I couldn't find the program after I installed it. It didn't show up in my start up menu, there was no icon installed to the screen, etc. It's not a huge deal. I just cut and pasted the folder into the proper folder and I right clicked to create an icon, but that might throw some people for a loop when they first use the program.
