RSS and Torrent

[ZaHayNa]

Just a suggestion, but making somewhat of a 'front-end' plugin for a program like utorrent (or maybe a custom bit-torrent client? I use utorrent because it's lightweight and powerful) that is powered by an RSS feed would be interesting.

That is, if you could go to a 'Torrent' menu, load a specified RSS feed (such as mininova.org), where you could sort out TV/Movie/Music downloads, and select them for download with your remote, as well as view progress and any other necessities.

Any coders out there interesting in taking a crack at it?

i would be use one if someone made one, and have been thinking about doing something for a while now. best way i can think of is just have a seperate bittorrent client and provide a front end for it.

i might do it if no one else does it, but it will be a while, kind of busy right now.

GREAT idea... Utorrent would probably be the best thing to base it on as it only uses a few mb of ram and virtually no cpu power!

I already have it setup for rss for a tv show called The IT Crowd...
