On that note, I think it's really too bad that there isn't a 
"podcatching" (downloading videos from RSS feeds, sometime using 
bitorrent) plugin for MythTV. Sure, you can use other programs 
(http://www.getmiro.com/ , http://podcatcher.rubyforge.org/), but it 
would be nice to stay in the MythTV interface.

I'd be really interested in learning about any work integrating UPnP or 
DAAP into MythTV, particularly if the implementations were compatible 
with Microsoft or Apple products.
