## Why

12
|

|

|
+
I wanted a fast and easy way to search for and download podcasts in any Unix

environment, without resorting to a GUI application or web browser. I also
|
15
|
+
wanted to start crowdsourcing and publishing podcast download statistics to

make it easier to spot popular podcasts and podcast episodes. Finally, I wanted
|
17
|
+
a more streamlined way to search for NPR podcasts than through the NPR website
|
18
|
+
or iTunes. Poddb serves these three goals.
