# Feedload

## Description

Small and simple go application that reads an RSS feed and downloads all episodes 

starting from the latest one. Rather than many shell or python scripts, this

application saves the episodes according to their episode title rather than their

file name on the server. 

Furthermore, it downloads the episodes in parallel with the aim of learning this 

programming language go.
