== Usage == add your RSS feeds to the 'rss_links' file and run the following: ruby downloader.rb This will download the enclosure of the first item for each feed link in the 'rss_links' file. The data will be put in a directory named 'downloads', in a subdirectory named after the feed description. == Motivation == I needed this because some of my feeds get updated every day (e.g. for a daily chronique) and only carry the 'post of the day' (with no history whatsoever). This means that if you miss a day, there is no way to get the data from that day again. The info is served as an feed item enclosure (an mp3 file in this case), so I needed a script to fetch that mp3 every day. Now all I need to do, is setup a cron job which runs my downloader script.
