In my first year of junior high school, I started using Scientific American podcasts to practise English. I listened on an MP3 player that could also display images and text, so I built a desktop application that downloaded episode audio, transcripts, and images in batches. A simple account system recorded which episodes each user had downloaded and allowed the application to continue from the previous stopping point.
