Oh indeed, I should have commented here ages ago. Sorry about the delay.

Talefish 0.0-13 has been my daily companion ever since the upgrade and it's working like a charm. Importing files is instantaneous now. And there are no more hangs while importing a large number of them. So, my feedback: No problems whatsoever, it's pure bliss. Kudos, velox!!!

Why was I checking out podQast, then? Well, it was because of one particular podcast which delivers mp3 files with random filenames (just weird letters and numbers). There was no chance for Talefish to play that in the right order (basically because there was none unless you had access to the rss feed). Also, I rather like the automagical download of podcasts. Nevertheless, with audiobooks Talefish will not be conquered any time soon.
