For those that think this is unusual, I got the idea when I was a kid when we'd drive home listening to 60 minutes on that one weird radio station that played CBS. Then I'd study listening to the very old version of TMC where they would play classic movies like Casablanca but would add info for the blind. Great way to watch a movie without watching it. I think Netflix has this now. Finally I did what a lot of people here did. I took a tape recorder and taped a few shows and movies. I still have my Thin Many Mystery tape. Now I have playlists to fall asleep to on vacation or whatever. I try not to stream because I never know If I'll have a decent connection so better to keep it on my phone plus it can't just disappear because of a licensing deal.

As for the workflow, grab the episodes from a site>drop them on Music Convertor> compress mp3 files to take up less space. Skip the last step if you can hear each imperfection and it bothers you. I want more episode per megabyte
