In the same way you handle torrents (I think) is there a way to scan the big Rapidshare link sites and automatically download (or use an external download manager) to download the episode?
Of course this would be limited to actually having a premium account.

Is there an RSS feed that has a list of .torrent (or similar) files?

My plan with RSS feeds is to fetch the feed, find matching episodes, download the associated file, then pass that to Windows' default handler for that file type. So, a .torrent file will end up being passed to (say) uTorrent.

Are there any examples of these Rapidshare link sites I can look at, without any sort of login, etc.?

Hmmm, not sure if they have the information you need the way you want....The RSS feeds don't link directly to Rapidshare links but rather to blog like posts which have the links, so maybe it will work if there is a way to look through the page for the links, something like what Flashgot http://flashgot.net/ does.

Anyway here are some sites with regularly updated RSS feeds, I've listed these three because each one of them lists RS links differently...
http://www.rlslog.net/ The RS links are in the comments, so there will be several links (mirrors) to each episode
http://www.irfree.com/ Lists the RS links directly (could be the easiest to handle?)
http://www.tvshare.us/ Usually lists links for complete season

BTW these also post links for other hosting services so if this works you can support any other download service as well :)

One of the most popular DDL sites that currently tracks wel over 600 TV series and numerous docu's and special's is DedicatedTV (http://www.dedicatedtv.net). The have there own feed (http://www.dedicatedtv.co.uk/bertie/feed/) which includes DDL links from RapidShare. Staff at DTV is extremely helpful!

It would be so cool if you could included a DDL feed function as well that srapes the RapidShare links.

Many thanks for all your hard work!
