Hey,

Anybody got a recommendation for a podcast app?

I want to be able to download and store the podcast over Wifi but set it so it won't download over the cellular network, data caps being what they are in this country.

Do I have to say I'd prefer it to be free?

Didn't anybody tell you I was a hacker?

I don't use Windows Phone but a review just came up on another site I visit that might be of interest to you
but the app does cost a few dollars

Currently pleasantly impressed with Podcast Picker. I'm not yet persuaded to part with any dosh though. So I remain in Trial Mode.

I find the built in music+videos app works reasonably well, but had to migrate my xbox\liveid account to US to get podcasts showing up in the store.

Is Pocketcasts available? It is on iOS & Android. I swear by it if it is. Best app ever.

Coming from iOS I found it difficult to find a good one, (I used to use Downcaster).

Podcast lounge, it's pretty damn good compared to others I've tried, pretty good feature set and active development.
Podcaster gets good reviews, but trust me, it's absolute crap.

Thanks.

iPodcast is what I am using now. Far from great but it is usable.

It would be great if the Music + Apps store worked outside the US but I guess that is too much to hope for.

Thanks again.
