Here's what's coming up in the next version of Sparks! (Monday, hopefully):

• The Download Manager is gone — all its functions are now integrated directly
• UI simplification; in particular, there is no seperate concept of a "Playlist" for Podcasts and Radio Stations — the Playlist is the category the podcaster/radio station is placed in.
• Some significant performance enhancements (we've been testing with 2500 blogs in Sparks!)
• The "iTunes" and "Windows Media Player" items are much more functional
• A lot of non-used or obsolete functions have been disabled internally, increasing performance and reducing resource needs
